Historic buildingOfficially recorded historic building · 804 ydExplorer Tom Historic building in Corglass is actually a bridge pretending to be a house, which is confusing everyone. Legend says a giant slept here and left his footprints on the road. Peek through the gap.
TobermogueHoly well · 1188 ydExplorer Tom Tobermogue in Derrintinny is infilled and forgotten by locals, so imagine a love story that ended badly and then everyone just moved on without talking about it. Pack a picnic and an excuse for why you’re standing there.
Lake View HouseHouse · 1595 ydExplorer Tom Lake View House in Deramfield has a pediment salvaged from somewhere else, which is basically architectural recycling at its finest. It replaced an older farm house because the farmer got rich and fancy. Practise your best rich-farmer pose outside!
DerrybrickMountain / peak · 1.2 miExplorer Tom Derrybrick looks down on its lough in County Cavan, probably wondering why everyone keeps taking photos of the water instead.
DerrynaMountain / peak · 1.2 miExplorer Tom Derryna is a quiet peak in Cavan, where the wind might whisper secrets only those who climb know well enough.
InishmuckIsland · 1.2 miExplorer Tom Inishmuck is a proper island in County Cavan, sitting proudly near Inishmuck Lough for anyone who likes a splash.
Clogh Oughter CastleCastle, Anglo-Norman masonry castle · 1.4 miExplorer Tom Clogh Oughter Castle sits on a tiny island in Lough Oughter, looking smug while de Lacys try to conquer Breifne. Ideal spot for a dramatic phone call to your ex.
Drumlane AbbeyHeritage attraction · 1.5 miExplorer Tom Drumlane Abbey features a round tower, with its lower part dating from the 10th or 11th century in County Cavan.
Cloughoughter CastleIsland castle ruin · 1.7 miExplorer Tom Cloughoughter Castle sits on an island in Lough Oughter, looking very smug about its isolation. I bet a fox took charge of the keys years ago and still hasn't let anyone in. Stand there long enough and someone will ask if you're lost.
Buck IslandIslet · 1.9 miExplorer Tom Buck Island in County Cavan sounds like the perfect place to settle down and finally find your daily dream home of peace.
Court tomb in GartnanoulCourt tomb · 2.0 miExplorer Tom Courts in Gartnanoul were never on the map but locals kept them safe from trees. It’s a dual tomb back-to-back like two mates sharing a secret. Mind the nettles, they're the real guards here.
Pedunculate Oak2.4 miExplorer Tom Pedunculate Oak in County Cavan thinks tourists from Dublin are loud, rude, and smell of overpriced coffee. It’s just standing there, silently judging your accent. Sit on a wall near it and pretend you're in a painting where everyone is being snobby.
