IndicatedCrannog · 427 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Crannog in Owngallees is a tree-covered island that might be a crannog. Have a look and decide if I was lying about the ghosts or not.
Architectural fragment in KilsobArchitectural fragment · 810 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Architectural fragment in Kilsob loves singing 'Bohemian Rhapsody' to itself because it’s confused about what it is. It’s just a chunk of history with commitment issues. Take the long way round, it deserves the effort.
Jampa Ling Buddhist CentreCountry house · 827 ydExplorer Tom Jampa Ling Buddhist Centre in Owengallees is a country house with a simple square-plan volume but plenty of decorative details. It’s in parkland with mature trees and a working walled garden. Meditate on how fancy it looks without actually closing your eyes.
Walled GardenGarden · 886 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Another Walled Garden in County Cavan likely hosts a very serious tea party for the local garden gnomes and squirrels.
St Mogue’s Roman Catholic ChurchChurch/chapel · 915 ydExplorer Tom St Mogue’s Church is floating its roof because it thinks gravity is optional and very traditional. Look serious, no smiling, while this 1970s Modernist brick box tries to out-cool your smartphone with its abstract expressionism.
KilsobMountain / peak · 1022 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Kilsob is a Cavan mountain with a mysterious name, inviting you to wonder about the history hidden in its rocky, ancient foundations.
OwengalleesMountain / peak · 1097 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Owengallees sounds like a name with history, maybe marking an old boundary or a hidden glen deep in County Cavan.
Children's playground1731 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Perhaps this Children's playground in County Cavan is where the neighborhood kids practice their most dramatic superhero landing moves.
European Beech1.3 miExplorer Tom European Beech in County Cavan has an imaginary twin across the sea that they argue with via telepathy. They probably discuss the weather and complain about the crows. Go at sunset and thank me later for the dramatic lighting on your photos.
Sycamore1.3 miExplorer Tom This Sycamore in County Cavan was probably bought with a bargain that didn't quite stick. The bark looks like it’s still negotiating the price tag. Pick a stone, any stone, and invent its biography, maybe it owes someone money.
Saint Mogue's IslandIslet · 1.4 miExplorer Tom Saint Mogue’s Island is an islet in County Cavan, perhaps blessed by that saint who loves Irish landscapes and big canvases.
Baron's IslandIslet · 1.8 miExplorer Tom Baron's Island sits quietly in County Cavan, though I suspect it secretly hosts a very exclusive hot tub rental for the nobility.
