Willowhill HouseHouse · 669 ydExplorer Tom Willowhill House is an archetypal Irish country house from 1780 with a central breakfront bay. It’s got that symmetrical look and some recent flat-roofed additions on the side. The orchard walls are still standing, which is great news.
Earthwork in KnockatoorEarthwork · 675 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Earthwork in Knockatoor is just a dirt bump with delusions of grandeur. A poet fell in the ditch nearby and wrote a bad poem about it. Bring a flask and pretend you own the place.
Man-made underground passage in FahaleaMan-made underground passage · 880 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Man-made underground passage in Fahalea claims to have been opened once, which sounds like a very one-hit wonder deal. Ring your granny and tell her where you are, she’ll know exactly what that means for dinner.
Fulacht fia in FahaleaFulacht fia · 880 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Fulacht fia in Fahalea is so vague it’s basically a rumor about a fire pit near a rath. Tell the next person you meet it's haunted, it might be, or it might just be very damp and grumpy.
Standing stone in FahaleaStanding stone · 880 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Standing stone in Fahalea was blown up by Mulcahy’s farm crew! Ten feet high and gone. No one knows where it stood now. It’s the ultimate ghost story with no body. Keep looking, maybe it’s hiding!
Fairy fort / earthen ringfort in FahaleaFairy fort / earthen ringfort · 901 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Fairy fort / earthen ringfort in Fahalea has a man-made underground passage associated with it, which is basically a secret tunnel. The bank is stone-faced on the south-east side, giving it some serious structural integrity. Bring a coin for luck and keep it in your pocket.
Fulacht fia in Kilpatrick (kinalea By.)Fulacht fia · 1121 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Fulacht fia in Kilpatrick is twenty-two metres of burnt material, which is basically a very long, very smoky argument. It would rate its visitors one star for lack of seasoning. Bring your own legend, I've run out.
Kilpatrick Church (in Ruins)Church · 1166 ydExplorer Tom Kilpatrick Church is hiding a scandal from centuries ago, probably involving a priest and a goat. Look serious, nod slowly, you're basically an expert now.

Castle (in Ruins)Castle, tower house · 1.8 miExplorer Tom Castle in Aghamarta is a three-storey tower that got hit by a storm in 1839. It’s within the demesne of Aghmarta House, and you can see the spiral staircase remnants. It’s got a round-arched door too. Look for the vault!
Carrigaline Castle (in Ruins)Castle, Anglo-Norman masonry castle · 2.3 miExplorer Tom Carrigaline Castle in Carrigaline East is hiding behind a lot of ivy and quarried stone. Only half the tower is really standing, but it looks mysterious. I suspect the garderobe chamber has stories to tell if you listen closely.
