Explorer Tom Stone sculpture in Titeskin features a crucified Christ on one side and a face on the other, dated 1731. It’s like a very old, very serious selfie. Go on, count the windows and get it wrong like I did.

Explorer Tom Ladys Well in Titeskin has a statue that’s seen better days, mate. There’s a slab with a face on it from 1731 that looks like it’s judging your life choices. Mind the rosary beads hanging everywhere.

water pump1.3 mi

Explorer Tom Water pump in Knockanemorney is a cast-iron beauty from 1870 with a cow's tail handle. It looks like it belongs in a museum, but it was for daily water use. The fluted cap and banded spout show that even pumping water needed some style back then.

gates/railings/walls1.3 mi

Explorer Tom Knockanemorney’s gates have a triumphal arch style entrance that looks like it walked out of Rome and got lost in Cork. The carved piers contrast with the rubble walls, proving class is permanent. Tell your neighbours to stop copying it.

(Site of) CastleCastle, unclassified · 1.7 mi

Explorer Tom Castle in Rostellan is basically a flat spot on the harbour shore. The Fitzgeralds rebuilt it as a house, then demolished it in 1944. It's like a castle that decided to retire early. Show me what's left!
