Graveyard (Disused)Graveyard · 405 ydComputer-made picture

Explorer Tom Graveyard (Disused) in Kilsillagh stopped taking bodies in 1897, which feels like a long time for a wait. It’s got a real suspicion of the postman, probably because he never brought any letters. Go now, before it gets famous.

Rock Castle (in Ruins)Castle, tower house · 1.2 mi

Dunworly CastleCastle · 1.2 mi

Explorer Tom Dunworly Castle in County Cork might be related to Blackwater, but they probably do not speak much anymore. It looks like a stern uncle who hates it when you borrow his tools. Be nice.
