Tonrehown BridgeBridge · 1408 yd

Explorer Tom Tonrehown Bridge in Ballinagavna is strutting across the river like it invented arches. A prophecy says it will float to Paris by 2050, but it’s still stuck here. Take a mate and admire its ego from afar.

Smithstown HouseFarm house · 1687 yd

Explorer Tom Smithstown House would tell its younger self to stop worrying about the limestone and start enjoying the sunsets. It was built by the Palmers, so it’s got some serious family pride baked into those walls. Pretend you’re a local historian and nod approvingly at its good taste.

Explorer Tom A love story went terribly wrong next to Castlelackan Demesne; she left him for a man with better hair and no history. The castle still looks heartbroken. Perfect detour when your satnav has a complete meltdown.
