DartfieldGate lodge · 840 yd
Ballydoogan HouseGates/railings/walls · 953 ydExplorer Tom Ballydoogan House gates would tell you after two pints that they never had a wall because they were too cool for walls. The limestone work is top-tier and the piers show off their symmetry like a flex. If it's closed, imagine you're the one who just unlocked it.
IndicatedDesigned landscape feature · 1115 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Designed landscape feature in Dartfield is a mystery spot where the ground just decided to be interesting. Nobody knows why, but it’s definitely for showing off. Bring a notebook and write the bit I made up about the seagull architect who designed it.
Graveslab in KilboghtGraveslab · 1247 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Graveslab in Kilboght is from 1642 and dedicated to a priest who definitely had secrets. The inscription runs around the edges, so if you can’t read it, just nod along confidently. Pretend you're a lost aristocrat, nobody will check your ID.
Grave YardGraveyard · 1253 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Graveyard in Kilboght has a Burke family vault from 1814 that looks like it’s judging your life choices. The trees are big and the vibes are old-school serious. Walk past slowly like you're in a film noir scene.
Fairy fort / earthen ringfort in KilmeenFairy fort / earthen ringfort · 1279 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Fairy fort / earthen ringfort in Kilmeen has two banks and a ditch. Sounds like my ex’s boundary. Bring curiosity, leave with a better story than mine.
Fairy fort / earthen ringfort in CooleenyFairy fort / earthen ringfort · 1360 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Fairy fort / earthen ringfort in Cooleeny is poorly preserved and sitting near a house, which is awkward. Two families once fought over who owned the view here. Go with someone who loves old stuff and watch them melt.
Children's burial ground in KilmeenChildren's burial ground · 1393 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Children's burial ground in Kilmeen is so subtle you’d need a microscope and a lot of patience to see the rubble. Best enjoyed with a bag of chips and absolutely no plans.
Round tower in KilmeenRound tower · 1400 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Round tower in Kilmeen is hiding its secrets so well you’d think it was shy. The whole parish probably argued about who invented the wheel while this thing just stood there judging them. Find the wonkiest bit and send it to your group chat.
Settlement desertedSettlement deserted, medieval · 1432 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom A deserted medieval settlement in Kilmeen that suspects the postman stole its history. Visit, then text me what you think. I'll pretend to read it while eating chips in the car park.
