Fairy fort or earthen ringfort in Rathevin

Explorer Tom Enclosure in Ardmacroan is a rectangular area on a drumlin that seems to be hiding from the road bank at its south end. It would handle a nosey neighbour by just going very still and hoping they get bored. The scarps are low, so you’re basically looking at a bump in the grass. Tell the next person you meet it's haunted. It might be.

Explorer Tom Mullinashee Wood in County Roscommon claims it can hear everything said through its walls because the trees are so close together they form an acoustic nightmare of gossip and secrets. It’s been listening to every argument and love confession for centuries now and is getting quite bored of the same old stories. Look for the ghost, then pretend you didn't.

Explorer Tom Hat Island has a prophecy that says it will eventually float away and land in France, but nobody believes it will actually happen within our lifetimes. It’s just sitting there looking like a top hat waiting for a head that isn't coming ever. If it's closed, admire it from the road like a polite stalker.

Explorer Tom Inishmoylin in County Roscommon would tell its younger self to stop worrying about being an islet and just enjoy the view from the water. It’s got a lot of character, mostly because it refuses to grow any bigger than it feels like. Sit on a wall near it and pretend you're in a painting.

Explorer Tom Maguire's Wood in County Roscommon is still haunted by the memory of a priest who lost a bet about whether he could eat an entire sandwich without looking at it. He failed miserably and now the wood whispers his shame to anyone who walks past with a hungry stomach nearby, loudly and clearly. Grand place for a sulk or a snog, your call.

Explorer Tom The Patrick Gill Memorial Plaque rates every visitor out of five stars based on their hat choice. Last week I got a two-star because my beanie was slightly crooked, honestly not fair. Bring sandwiches, the gulls will thank you.
