Moneyguyneen WoodWood · 318 ydKinnitty CastleGate lodge · 568 yd

Explorer Tom Kinnitty Castle gate lodge is showing off its arched door like it’s on a date. What does it say on its profile? 'Likes stone and privacy.' Stand on the spot, don't touch the fancy bits.

milestone/milepost729 yd

Explorer Tom Milestone in Moneyguyneen is still pointing at Mountmellick, even though everyone has a GPS and a car now. It’s sick of people asking if it knows the way to the pub, mate. Bring a map, geologist style, and bow respectfully to history.

Explorer Tom Castle in Castletown and Glinsk confuses the map makers because it got landscaped. A cottage is built right into the mound. Bring a friend who talks too much and let the place shut them up.

Kinnitty Castle LoopWalking route · 1.0 miToberlugnaHoly well · 2.4 mi

Explorer Tom Toberlugna in Letter is half a wall and full of mystery. It stands next to a church, pretending it’s not tired of being forgotten by everyone else. Toast it with a cup of tea and move on to the next.

Hawthorn4.3 mi

Explorer Tom This Hawthorn in County Offaly witnessed a love story where one party got very stung, literally speaking. It’s still holding a grudge against roses. A proper spot for a flask of tea and a big think.

Ballymooney Castle in RuinsHouse, fortified house · 4.9 mi

Explorer Tom Ballymooney Castle in Ruins is mostly gone, but two towers are still standing guard like tired bouncers. Two lads once bet it would survive the rain, and it did, barely. It’s got a very 'I’m still here' energy despite the marsh next door. Spot the oldest stone and give it a name.
