Explorer Tom Barrys Castle in Dunbogey is basically a rock that used to be a castle until they levelled it flat. There's a platform there now, so just stand on the grass and imagine the glory of 1553!
Signal Tower (site of)Signal tower · 253 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Signal Tower in Dunbogey sits on flat ground next to steep slopes that drop off into the sea, so it’s basically watching its own grave. It’s got an imaginary twin across the sea that’s probably judging it for being so close to the edge. Have a look and decide if I was lying.
Fairy fort / earthen ringfort in DunbogeyFairy fort / earthen ringfort · 891 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Fairy fort / earthen ringfort in Dunbogey was on the 1842 map as a circular enclosure, but now it's just levelled out and some scattered stones. History is really good at disappearing when you're not looking closely enough.
Creek Newfoundland BsyViewpoint · 912 ydExplorer Tom Creek Newfoundland Bsy has caught my eye in County Cork. I bet a viewpoint with a name like that could keep me talking all afternoon; I'm already inventing a daft little scene for it, and I'll stop before it turns into history.
New Foundland Bay viewViewpoint · 1367 ydExplorer Tom New Foundland Bay view has caught my eye in County Cork. I bet a viewpoint with a name like that could keep me talking all afternoon; I'm already inventing a daft little scene for it, and I'll stop before it turns into history.
Nohaval CoveBeach / strand · 1578 ydExplorer Tom Nohaval Cove has caught my eye in County Cork. I bet a beach / strand with a name like that could keep me talking all afternoon; I'm already inventing a daft little scene for it, and I'll stop before it turns into history.
Taoide MharaRuins · 1626 ydExplorer Tom Taoide Mhara has caught my eye in County Cork. I bet a ruins with a name like that could keep me talking all afternoon; I'm already inventing a daft little scene for it, and I'll stop before it turns into history.
St Patrick's Roman Catholic ChurchChurch/chapel · 1.4 miExplorer Tom St Patrick's Roman Catholic Church in Nohaval was built in 1950, which makes it the new kid on the block for churches in this area. It’s got confessionals on the sides, which is a bit weird unless you like privacy from your sins. The landscape around it is so impressive it makes the building look like an afterthought.
Kinure Castle (Site of)Castle, unclassified · 2.1 miExplorer Tom Kinure Castle was built by the Roche family way back in 1576. It’s sitting on a slope overlooking Ballinclashet creek with absolutely nothing left to see. Just a spot where history used to hang out before vanishing.
Sovereign IslandIslet · 2.4 miExplorer Tom Sovereign Island has caught my eye in County Cork. I bet a islet with a name like that could keep me talking all afternoon; I'm already inventing a daft little scene for it, and I'll stop before it turns into history.
Rocky BayBeach / strand · 3.4 miExplorer Tom Rocky Bay has caught my eye in County Cork. I bet a beach / strand with a name like that could keep me talking all afternoon; I'm already inventing a daft little scene for it, and I'll stop before it turns into history.
Kinsale HarbourBay · 4.8 miExplorer Tom Kinsale Harbour has caught my eye in County Cork. I bet a bay with a name like that could keep me talking all afternoon; I'm already inventing a daft little scene for it, and I'll stop before it turns into history.
