Penrose HouseOffice · 3 ydExplorer Tom Penrose House on Penrose’s Quay is an imposing classical beast with ashlar limestone that screams money and power. It’s got cast iron railings that look like they could bite you. Have a look, but don’t touch unless you want a lawsuit!
Historic buildingOfficially recorded historic building · 99 ydExplorer Tom Historic building in Cork City is really just seven mooring posts from 1814 that have retired but still think they’re working hard. They’ve got lettering in relief and probably a complex about being forgotten by the Bonded Warehouse gang. Bring the dog, it'll have opinions.

Wayside shrine335 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom This Wayside shrine in County Cork has permissive access, which means you can probably peek inside if you’re feeling brave. It might be napping. Don’t wake the saints unless you have to!
Tram depot in Cork CityTram depot · 385 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom The Tram depot in Cork City has absolutely no record uploaded yet, so I’m making this up: it’s definitely haunted by ghost trams that scream when you look at the rails. Just trust me on this one, mate!
