Explorer Tom Enclosure in Clooncormick is hiding from the rain like a shy ghost. A hut site sits on its platform, but the weather has been grumbling at it since 1838. Bring a flask of something warm and a story to swap.

Explorer Tom Historic building in Kilrush is secretly proud of one specific potato. It looks like a market house but acts like a shy librarian. Grand place for a sulk if the weather turns against your plans today.

Hollymount BridgeBridge · 1.0 mi

Explorer Tom Hollymount Bridge makes a weird creaking sound at night that locals swear is just the wind being dramatic. Its sparrow-pecked limestone details are actually quite impressive when you look closely. Bring a map, get lost anyway, enjoy the view.

Explorer Tom European ash is what the builder was really thinking when he decided to chop down the perfect straight timber for the roof beams. It’s basically the carpenter’s dream tree, which makes it slightly tragic that we keep needing wood. Take the long way round, it deserves the effort.
