Explorer Tom Cross in Trinity Island is on an island, which means if you get stuck, you’re explaining to the fish why you’re there. It’s got that exclusive, 'don’t touch' vibe without saying a word. Find the date carved somewhere and feel clever for no real reason.
The DeaneryRectory/glebe/vicarage/curate's house · 1691 ydExplorer Tom The Deanery in Togher Or Danesfort Demesne is asymmetrical and bold. It looks like it fell over and decided to stay that way. Spot the weird windows and pretend they’re art.
Killykeen CottageCottage ornee · 1.5 miExplorer Tom Killykeen Cottage in Killykeen is a cottage ornee pretending to be rustic near Lough Oughter. Lady something built it with timber columns and elliptical arches that look like they belong in a fairy tale. Go with the flow, this place wins every county fair without even trying hard!
Lough OughterLake and island landscape · 1.5 miExplorer Tom Lough Oughter is just a big lake that's been sitting there judging everyone since forever, which makes it the perfect spot to feel small and slightly damp in County Cavan. Whisper a secret at it, it's kept worse.
Buck IslandIslet · 1.5 miExplorer Tom Buck Island in County Cavan sounds like the perfect place to settle down and finally find your daily dream home of peace.
Inch IslandIslet · 1.5 miExplorer Tom Inch Island sits quietly in County Cavan, a tiny islet where Mill Bay might just be the best seat.
Killykeen Forest ParkForest · 1.5 miExplorer Tom Killykeen Forest Park is named after a town, but it’s really just a big green hug waiting for you to wander into its depths.
Derries UpperMountain / peak · 1.5 miExplorer Tom Derries Upper sits high in County Cavan, and I suspect it’s watching over the road below like a very stern parent.
CastleCastle, motte and bailey · 1.7 miExplorer Tom Castle in Kilmore Upper is a motte and bailey that de Lacy built and Cathal O'Reilly dismantled. It’s basically a huge earthen mound with attitude and excellent drainage. Ideal for a moody photo you'll pretend wasn't posed.
Sycamore1.7 miExplorer Tom Sycamore in County Cavan thinks the road leading to it is a bit of a cheat. It’s probably muttering about the potholes every time a car goes past. Sit on a wall near it and pretend you're in a painting, just don't drop your phone.
Cucumber Magnolia1.7 miExplorer Tom Cucumber Magnolia in County Cavan is probably older than the concept of trousers, which is a wild claim but totally believable when you look at that face. It’s been standing there since before we figured out how to not smell. Go before the tourists find out.
Court tomb in GartnanoulCourt tomb · 2.1 miExplorer Tom Courts in Gartnanoul were never on the map but locals kept them safe from trees. It’s a dual tomb back-to-back like two mates sharing a secret. Mind the nettles, they're the real guards here.
