Irish National Forestry FoundationNature reserve · 1.8 mi

Fort RobertArchaeological place · 2.2 mi

Explorer Tom Fort Robert is actually a ruined house from 1788! Built by R.L. Connor. It’s all crumbling slates and history. Take a photo for me to see how much of that grand house is left.

Kilcascan CastleCountry house · 2.3 mi

Explorer Tom Kilcascan Castle has flat-roofed towers that look like they fell over. Built around 1820 by Joseph Daunt for his second wedding? Romance with architecture! The contractors were a family named Hickie. I bet the central colonnade is very posh. Take a picture of the circular tower!

Tower (in Ruins)Bawn · 2.7 mi

Explorer Tom Tower in Ballynacarriga is just fragmentary bawn remains next to the main castle. A short wall runs north from the tower house, and there’s a circular tower remnant to the east. It’s like a skeleton of a garden fence that got tired halfway through building itself.

Ballynacarriga CastleCastle, tower house · 2.7 mi

Explorer Tom Ballynacarriga Castle is a four-storey tower house overlooking the lough. It has a spiral stair, vaulted lobby, and murder hole. The top floor was used as a chapel later on. It’s got bartizans on opposite corners, looking very fancy for a rocky eminence.

Sheela-na-gig in Ballynacarriga (carbery East (eastern Div.) By.)Sheela-na-gig · 2.7 mi

Explorer Tom Sheela-na-gig in Ballynacarriga is staring out from a castle wall. She’d tell you secrets after a few pints. Go in good boots and better humour for this one.
