Fulacht FianFulacht fia · 448 yd

Explorer Tom Fulacht Fian in Aghaville would post a picture of itself on social media with the caption 'Living my best burnt life'. It’s in reclaimed pasture, so it’s basically a new kid on the block. It's free, it's odd, what more do you want from a heap of old ash?

Dromore SchoolSchool · 901 yd

Explorer Tom Dromore School is an L-plan relic from 1886 that used to educate local kids. Now it’s just two private houses pretending to be normal. The history is thick here. Get a photo for me!

St. Joseph's Roman Catholic ChurchChurch/chapel · 976 yd

Explorer Tom St. Joseph's Roman Catholic Church in Dromore is the largest building in the village and sits on an elevated site. It was built to replace an earlier church, so it’s basically the big brother that took over the house. It would complain to the council about the lack of parking and the noise from the kids.

Explorer Tom Caheragh Burial Ground in Caheragh, County Cork sits on an east-facing slope where a medieval church used to be. The church was gone by 1699, but the graveyard stuck around. Get a photo with it before it gets a better agent and leaves town.

Castle DonovanCastle · 3.9 mi

Explorer Tom Castle Donovan in County Cork was damaged by Cromwell's army back in 1650. It's on a rocky outcrop now undergoing repair. Take a photo for me if you can see the battle scars still lingering!

Castle Donovan (in Ruins)Castle, tower house · 3.9 mi

Explorer Tom Castle Donovan in Castledonovan, County Cork is showing off its full height, despite losing a corner like it was nothing. Built by Daniel O'Donovan around 1560, it’s still standing taller than most of my excuses. Wave to the river if you can!
