Coolmountain SchoolSchool · 1.4 miExplorer Tom Coolmountain School is a corrugated-iron box from 1950 sitting empty on a big plot of land. It’s got those commanding views, you know.
Togher CreameryCreamery · 2.8 miExplorer Tom Togher Creamery closed in 1988 when farmers stopped bringing milk jugs and started using big tanks instead. Now it's just a shop pretending it still smells of butter. Check the copper ridge vents!
Togher CastleCastle, tower house · 3.2 miExplorer Tom Togher Castle is sitting on a rock ridge in a marshy area, which is nature’s way of saying 'you’re not that special.' It’s got a spiral staircase and a room locals call 'the tyrant's little room,' so bring your nan, she'll know more than me about tyranny.
Doughill MountainMountain / peak · 3.5 miExplorer Tom Doughill Mountain has caught my eye in County Cork. I bet a mountain / peak with a name like that could keep me talking all afternoon; I'm already inventing a daft little scene for it, and I'll stop before it turns into history.

Carrignacurra CastleCastle · 5.6 miExplorer Tom Carrignacurra Castle in County Cork was the chief seat of the O'Learys. Built on a rock by the River Lee! It got captured and forfeited. Take a picture for me if you see the history peeking through!
GallaunsStone circle, five-stone · 7.7 miExplorer Tom Gallauns in Kealkill was excavated back in '38 to find wooden sleepers that vanished. Just five stones now, packing their bags for the exit.

Graveyard9.0 miExplorer Tom Graveyard in Lisheen contains the ruins of Kilmocomogne church and a holy well to the south, which makes for a great combo tour. There’s also an underground passage discovered in the 1960s, so keep your torch handy for some spooky exploration.
