Explorer Tom Slab-lined burial in Hoddersfield contained a tall, strongly-built adult male who was buried with no fancy objects. O'Kelly thinks it’s Early Christian, which is a guess but sounds right. Look for that stone-lined grave shape in your mind!
gate lodge1317 ydExplorer Tom Gate lodge in Knocknagore used to guard Crosshaven House but now just sits on the roadside looking a bit redundant. It’s had some joinery replaced and extensions added, so it’s not exactly original anymore. Tell it Tom thinks it needs a makeover!
Ardnalee HouseHouse · 1373 ydExplorer Tom Ardnalee House in Knocknagore is showing off its fancy bargeboards like it owns the place. Built around 1900, this detached beauty is the only one of its kind on that hill. Wave at me if you see it!

Castle (in Ruins)Castle, tower house · 1.1 miExplorer Tom Castle in Aghamarta is a three-storey tower that got hit by a storm in 1839. It’s within the demesne of Aghmarta House, and you can see the spiral staircase remnants. It’s got a round-arched door too. Look for the vault!
Explorer Tom Castle in Crosshaven left behind one fancy window fragment, which is basically its entire personality now. The Fitzgeralds built it, but it would win a county fair for best hidden treasure. Take the long way round, it deserves the effort.

Church Bay BeachBeach / strand · 1.6 miExplorer Tom Camden Fort sits on the high ground guarding Cork Harbour, looking down its nose at anyone who can’t swim very well. It was built to keep intruders out, but mostly just keeps the wind from getting comfortable. Go on a wet day, it suits the mood.
