St Eolan's Roman Catholic ChurchChurch/chapel · 1093 yd

Explorer Tom St Eolan's Roman Catholic Church in Rylane is a 1971 modernist experiment that looks like a spaceship landed on a field. It’s got a flat roof and no traditional cross shape. Snap it!

Saint Bartholomew's WellSpring · 2.2 mi

Explorer Tom Saint Bartholomew's Well has caught my eye in County Cork. I bet a spring 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.

Dromatimore HouseHouse · 2.4 mi

Explorer Tom Dromatimore House has bowed breakfronts making it look like a cross, which is pretty wild. Built around 1780, it’s unadorned but striking in its own way. Capture that unusual cruciform plan!

Carrigagulla Stone CircleArchaeological place · 4.2 mi

Explorer Tom Carrigagulla Stone Circle in County Cork is north of Ballinagree and looks like it’s waiting for someone to start dancing. I bet they used to party hard here. Check if the circle is complete or if one stone ran off.

Carrignamuck Tower HouseCastle · 4.4 mi

Explorer Tom Carrignamuck Tower House in County Cork was breached by Lord Broghill in 1650. It's now in Dripsey Castle's grounds. Take a photo for me if you can find the hole in the east wall!

Carrigadrohid Castle (in Ruins)Castle, tower house · 4.9 mi

Explorer Tom Carrigadrohid Castle is standing in water because someone decided to build a dam nearby. It's basically an island now, which is very dramatic. The MacCarthys built this back in the fifteenth century, so it's seen some stuff!
