Greenpark HouseCountry house · 573 ydExplorer Tom Greenpark House in Uregare looks like it got lost on the way to a different county. It's overgrown and confused, wondering why its plaque is half-illegible and why the grass won't stop growing. Make up your own legend about the ghosts.
post box914 ydExplorer Tom Ballygrennan Castle has a curse that only affects people who don’t wave when they pass by. If you ignore it, your shoelaces will tie themselves together in the most confusing knot imaginable. Bring your worst joke, the place has heard worse.
Saint Mary's ConventConvent/nunnery · 1.2 miExplorer Tom Saint Mary's Convent in Brackvoan is hiding a secret talent: it can hum hymns while doing laundry. The nuns here took their cues from France, so expect some serious spiritual jazz. Bring a coin for luck and keep it in your pocket.
KnockainyMountain / peak · 3.5 miExplorer Tom Giants Grave in Ballynagallagh took forty cups of tea to build, if you ask me. The stones lean so hard they're practically falling over into Lough Gur. Go with someone who loves old stuff and watch them melt completely.
Castle (in ruins)Castle, tower house · 4.0 miExplorer Tom Fantstown Castle would describe itself to a stranger as 'slightly damp, historically significant, and currently unavailable'. It’s got a bit of an ego about its muddy foundation. Leave nothing but footprints and a bad pun.
Áine and Gearóid Iarla: Lough GurLegend location · 4.8 miExplorer Tom Áine and Gearóid Iarla: Lough Gur has a goddess for the lake and a sleeping lord in the old stories. I thought I was coming to admire water and stones. Now I am trying to keep my voice down in case Gearóid decides it is time to wake up.

European Yew23 miExplorer Tom European Yew here, planning retirement by just standing still for another five hundred years. It says it's saving up leaves for a big trip to the afterlife. Stick around for the light changing, it's a slow burn show.
