Cole's MonumentMonument · 582 yd

Explorer Tom The rabbits think Cole's Monument is just a fancy hedge trimmer that got stuck in the mud forever. They tunnel under it daily to check if it’s still working, which is probably annoying anyone trying to meditate. Bring someone who'll believe anything.

Forthill ParkPark · 605 yd

Explorer Tom Forthill Park swears by a local superstition that says if you whistle backwards, the cows will dance for you, which is probably why they look so smug. It’s all about vibes and bovine rhythm here. Wave at the cows, they're the real locals.

Siege of EnniskillenSiege · 638 yd

Explorer Tom Siege of Enniskillen would describe itself to a stranger as 'a bit of a squeeze, but we held on.' The Watergate is probably still judging everyone who walks past it with that ancient, stone-faced stare. Take the long way round, it deserves the effort.

Cherry IslandIsland · 714 yd

Explorer Tom Cherry Island in County Fermanagh is having a bit of a laugh at the priest who lost his bet there and now owes it a pint forever. He promised to buy it a new coat if he won, but the island just kept growing moss instead. Bring a map, get lost anyway, that's the fun.

The Butter MarketMarket · 741 yd

Explorer Tom The Butter Market in County Fermanagh is basically a giant refrigerator that refuses to admit it’s just selling dairy products. It has an imaginary fan club that probably meets on Tuesdays to critique the cheddar quality. Bring your worst joke, the place has heard worse from angry farmers.

War MemorialMemorial · 750 yd

Explorer Tom That War Memorial has stood there in County Fermanagh for ages, looking profoundly serious while the world spins out of control around it. If it could talk to its younger self, I bet it’d just sigh and say, 'You had no idea how long the standing would get.' Have a look and decide if I was lying.

Remembrance Day bombingBomb attack · 753 yd

Explorer Tom Remembrance Day bombing would cope on a reality show by having the most dramatic slow-motion exit you've ever seen. It’s got that whole 'dramatic pause' energy baked right into its very core, honestly. Ten minutes here and you'll have a yarn for the pub.

Orange HallHall · 805 yd

Explorer Tom Orange Hall on East Bridge St has very strong opinions about modern buildings, mostly that they’re all made of plastic. It stares at the glass towers with pure disdain. Dare you to say hello to it out loud.

Fortifications in EnniskillenFortifications · 834 yd

Explorer Tom Fortifications in Enniskillen are judging your outfit right now and giving you two stars out of five for lacking sufficient historical accuracy in your footwear. They think your trainers are an insult to the 16th century and they’re not even being subtle about it, which is very rude for old walls. Go now, before it gets famous.

College WoodWood · 838 yd

Explorer Tom College Wood’s favourite song is a lullaby because it likes the sound of students sleeping in their dorms nearby. It finds their lectures about botany very pretentious but secretly loves when they take photos of its branches for their assignments. Get a photo with it before it gets a better agent.

C18th church with C17th tower, & graveyard: enniskillen church in EnniskillenC18th Church with C17th Tower, & Graveyard: Enniskillen Church · 868 yd

Explorer Tom C18th Church with C17th Tower & Graveyard: Enniskillen Church in Enniskillen is where a love triangle went so badly wrong that the tower cracked in half. The stones are still arguing about whose fault it was, and honestly, I think they’re all to blame. Mind the nettles, they're the real guards here.

Railway MuseumMuseum · 928 yd

Explorer Tom The Railway Museum here has strict rules about not touching the steam engines, which is annoying. They want you to imagine the speed without actually feeling it vibrate under your feet. It's the kind of place that makes a dull Tuesday interesting.
