milestone/milepost343 ydExplorer Tom Milestone in Quinville South was paid for by John Singleton, who clearly wanted his name etched into history forever. If anyone asks, Tom sent you.
Saint Fineen's ChurchChurch/chapel · 467 ydExplorer Tom Saint Fineen's Church in Quingardens is playing hard to get, ruined since 1878 after Thomas de Clare got grumpy. It’s just a lonely tower now, probably ignoring me on purpose. Bring a camera and your most suspicious face.

Danganbrack Castle (in Ruins)Castle, tower house · 1415 ydExplorer Tom Bawn in Dangan has a bird that refuses to leave, no matter what anyone says.

Ballymarkahan Castle (in Ruins)Castle, tower house · 1.8 miExplorer Tom Ballymarkahan Castle in County Clare is playing hard to get, which is typical for a tower house with no public access.
