Newberry HouseBridge · 1 ydExplorer Tom Newberry House bridge is a triple-arch sandstone footbridge that’s too narrow for a car. It’s been leading people to a church since 1750, which is quite the commute really.
Architectural fragment in NewberryArchitectural fragment · 53 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Architectural fragment in Newberry has little carved heads on the edges of an old window arch. Tiny faces staring at you while you try to figure out what they're thinking. Spot the oldest stone and give it a name.
Graveslab in NewberryGraveslab · 53 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Graveslab in Newberry is built into a wall, refusing to fall down because it thinks it’s important. It came from an abbey, so it’s basically a celebrity guest. If anyone asks, Tom sent you.
Graveyard65 ydExplorer Tom Graveyard in Newberry has a 17th-century inscription on an altar-tomb that definitely wasn't supposed to be there. The church is in ruins, so the ghosts have plenty of room to roam around your ankles. Snap one for me if you see it!
Saint Senach's Church (Kilshannig)Church/chapel · 94 ydExplorer Tom Saint Senach's Church (Kilshannig) has a tower that might be medieval, or just really old and grumpy. A local claims he invented the side aisle in 1892 while napping. Don't let him talk your ear off; just nod and admire the carved stone doorcases.
The Old RectoryRectory/glebe/vicarage/curate's house · 191 ydExplorer Tom The Old Rectory in Kilvealaton West has a canted bay that looks like it’s winking at you. It’s got those timber sash windows too, which are proper charming. Perfect spot for a quiet pint if the Foott family aren’t looking.
Fairy fort / earthen ringfort in NewberryFairy fort / earthen ringfort · 282 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Newberry’s fort hid in a wood by the Blackwater so it could be left alone. It’s overgrown, mysterious, and probably judging your hiking boots right now. Look serious, nod slowly, you’re basically an expert now.
Fulacht fia in NewberryFulacht fia · 282 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Fulacht fia in Newberry would describe itself as 'levelled' to any stranger who asks. It’s basically a memory of a fire pit on Mrs Foote's land. Bring the dog, it'll have opinions on where to pee near the old burn marks.
Standing stone in Kilvealaton WestStanding stone · 584 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Standing stone in Kilvealaton West is lying flat like it's taking a nap. It tapers to a ridge on top, which looks suspiciously like a sleeping bag zipper. Get a photo with it before it gets a better agent.
Dromaneen CastleHeritage attraction · 1.0 mi
Dromaneen Castle (in Ruins)House, fortified house · 1.0 miExplorer Tom Dromaneen Castle sits atop a cliff edge overlooking the Blackwater River. It was an O'Callaghan fortified house built on an earlier castle site. The MacDonagh MacCarthys were the overlords, which sounds like a very dramatic family reunion gone wrong.
