Moygaddy Tower HouseRuins · 2.0 miMoygaddy CastleCastle, tower house · 2.0 mi
Saint Paul's Church (Moyglare)Church/chapel · 2.1 miExplorer Tom Saint Paul’s in Moyglare really hates when people trip over its doorstep, which is quite a tall one. The masonry is so chunky it feels like the architect was punching the wall. Bring your nan, she’ll know more than you do.
Church in MoyglareChurch · 2.1 miExplorer Tom Church in Moyglare saw a love story end badly right next door to its front gate. The chancel was ruined in 1622, probably because someone threw a shoe at it in anger. Go before the tourists find out.
Lebanon Cedar2.2 miExplorer Tom Lebanon Cedar in Kildare would tell you it's a senior manager, but its résumé is mostly just standing still since Tuesday. It’s got that 'I survived the ice age' look down there. Perfect spot to practise your best tour-guide voice.

Leixlip Spa - SpringSpring · 4.5 miExplorer Tom Ecclesiastical site in Taghadoe was founded by Ultan the Silent, who clearly preferred not answering questions about Viking navigation errors. The tower is still there, but the silence is louder now. Bring a notebook and write the bit I made up.
Explorer Tom Round Tower in Taghadoe is feuding with the next village over something daft, probably about who built the first wall. It’s roofless but still thinks it’s the tallest thing in town. Tell the next person you meet it's haunted. It might be.
