Fairy fort or earthen ringfort in Cloonfineen

Explorer Tom Kiltullagh Church in Ballinlough has a superstition that locals swear by: if you can see all four roads at once without getting dizzy, you’re blessed for the year. It’s got fine stonework and stained glass that cost two thousand five hundred pounds back in 1818, which is basically a fortune in old money terms. Check out that view from the intersection and tell me

Explorer Tom Bawn in Glinsk listens to what goes on inside the walls and probably hears the Burkes arguing about who left the light on in 1630.

Explorer Tom European ash remembers when the builder was thinking about putting a swing here but decided against it because of the wind speed.

It might be.

Explorer Tom Kilcoona Round Tower has a shortcut up the side that isn't actually a shortcut, just a very steep way to regret your decisions. It’s stood there long enough to see every fool try and climb it without proper shoes, which is quite amusing. Stand on the spot and imagine the gossip it's heard.
