Timahoe Church and Round TowerVisitor information · 124 yd

Saint Michael's Catholic ChurchChurch/chapel · 124 yd

Explorer Tom Saint Michael's Catholic Church in Timahoe is an 1831 masterpiece with a gallery that looks like it was added as an afterthought for the really tall people. It’s got a dating profile that says 'seeking someone who doesn't mind a bit of draft.' The architect is unknown, which just adds to the mystery and the cheekiness of the whole thing. Bring your nan, she'll know more than me.

Timahoe Heritage CentreChurch/chapel · 158 yd

Explorer Tom Timahoe Heritage Centre was a church, so the rabbits inside are probably praying for snacks. It’s got a bellcote that looks like it’s ready to ring in doom. Bring your worst joke, the place has heard worse.

Timahoe Round TowerVisitor attraction · 172 yd

Rock of CashelMountain / peak · 3.8 mi

European Beech4.2 mi

Explorer Tom This other European Beech swears it’s three hundred years old, which I believe because it looks ancient and grumpy. It’s basically a tree with a serious attitude problem and great posture. Bring biscuits, every good story needs biscuits.
