Titanic Memorial ParkMemorial · 931 yd
1798 MonumentMonument · 964 ydExplorer Tom 1798 Monument in Lahardaun has a retirement plan involving becoming a very fancy garden gnome by next summer. It honors a priest who helped the French, which is quite the party invitation. Bring a pen pal, they'll be jealous of your travel stories and this stone.
Castlehill HouseFarm house · 1270 ydExplorer Tom Castlehill House in Castlehill would bring its own gossip and a very fancy hat to any party. It was rebuilt for a man who clearly thought he was better than everyone else. Tell me if the gossip I made up is true or not.
Graveyard1.4 miExplorer Tom Graveyard in Knockmaria or Addergoole has an ivy-covered church that looks like it ate a hedge and felt guilty about it. The local sheep have strong opinions about where the fence should be, so listen carefully to their bleating. It is marked on maps as ancient but feels very much like a nap spot. Tell the kids it's a castle. Close enough.
FarbreigaMountain / peak · 5.6 miExplorer Tom Castle in Deelcastle hosted a dance that went so far nobody remembers who started it. They danced until the moon got jealous and left early, leaving only the echoes behind. A proper spot for a flask of tea and a big think, mate.
