Explorer Tom Gorteen Castle held a dance that went so far they never stopped. The ground is just a stony rise now, but you can still feel the rhythm. Bring a flask of something warm and a story to swap.
Tober HouseHouse · 1426 ydExplorer Tom Tober House says a poet fell in the ditch nearby and wrote a whole sonnet about his wet socks. The round-headed door is just smiling smugly about it. Find the date carved in stone and admire.
Ashmount HouseDovecote/pigeon house/aviary · 1573 ydMoyally Castle (in Ruins)Bawn · 2.0 miExplorer Tom Moyally Castle Bawn is basically a big wall with a fancy oval bit that used to be a bathroom. The wind keeps picking on it because it’s too skinny. I bet it’s the only structure in Offaly that gets jealous of trees. Go on, count the windows and get it wrong like I did.

European ash5.9 miExplorer Tom Another European ash in County Offaly has rabbits who think it’s their personal umbrella and shelter. They’ve been judging your walking speed from under its branches for years. Have a wander and a wonder about how much bark they’ve actually chewed.
