house, shop/retail outlet291 ydExplorer Tom House, shop or retail outlet in Corrarod is Gannon's Crossroads, where a red-brick pub and bakery used to throw the best parties in Cavan. The brickwork is fancy for a rural spot, so I bet it hosted more gossip than actual bread. Take a picture for me if you pass!
coaching inn310 ydExplorer Tom Coaching inn in Drumgorry was a bakery, smithy, and pub all rolled into one chaotic mess. I reckon it took forty cups of tea to build that imposing front elevation. Breathe deep, you might smell old horseshoes.
DrumgorryMountain / peak · 420 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Drumgorry is a Cavan peak that feels like it’s wearing a very old, slightly torn hat and pretending not to notice the rain.
Fairy fort / earthen ringfort in CoolnalitteraghFairy fort / earthen ringfort · 512 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Fairy fort / earthen ringfort in Coolnalitteragh is absolutely massive, like a hill decided to get a haircut and keep all the clippings as a wall. It’s got a little crescent inside that looks suspiciously like a sleeping fairy or a very old moon. Toast it with a cup of tea and move on to the next.
Bawn in KillyfanaBawn · 978 ydExplorer Tom Bawn in Killyfana was possibly built by Richard Tyrell. Curious banks enclosed it, but now they’re just... gone? The earth forgot about it. Make up your own legend and I'll swear it's true.
Enclosure in KillyfanaEnclosure · 987 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Killyfana is an enclosure with absolutely zero information, which is suspicious for a place that claims to be ancient. It thinks highly of itself but won't say why. Bring biscuits, every good mystery needs a snack to fuel your suspicion.
RamulliganMountain / peak · 1.6 miComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Ramulligan is a fun-sounding peak in County Cavan, likely a favorite spot for local walkers who know its hidden paths well.
The Village PlaygroundChildren's playground · 1.9 miComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom I bet The Village Playground is the heart of local gossip, watched closely by every grandparent in County Cavan with a cup of tea.
RuinsHouse, fortified house · 1.9 miExplorer Tom Ruins at Redhill Demesne is a mid-18th-century fortified house that's missing a few walls. If it were a person at a wedding, it'd be the one who left early to avoid the speeches. Tell your mates you found it first.
Sycamore2.0 miExplorer Tom Another Sycamore in County Cavan clearly got lost on the way to being a proper tree. It looks like it wandered in from a different county entirely. Leave nothing but footprints and a bad pun, because that's all I've got for you today.
European Yew2.1 miExplorer Tom European Yew in County Cavan has a curse that only affects people who don't wave when they pass by. Polite, but very specific. Have a sandwich here and call it a heritage lunch because you were technically under a heritage tree while eating ham.
Children's playground3.4 miComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom In this Children's playground in County Cavan, I bet the swings can fly higher than the clouds if you believe hard enough.
