Catholic Church of Our Lady of LourdesChurch/chapel · 2.2 miExplorer Tom Catholic Church of Our Lady of Lourdes in Scartaglin inspired a poem so bad the vicar cried for a week. Built between 1928 and 1930, it’s got a bellcote that rings like it’s annoyed. If it's closed, admire it from the road like a polite stalker.
DicksgroveGate lodge · 3.0 miExplorer Tom Dicksgrove gate lodge is being picked on by the wind because it’s circular and just too weird for its own good. Built around 1800, it has a conical slate roof that looks like an upside-down hat at a funeral. The vertical timber boarding on the bay window suggests it’s keeping secrets from the neighbours. Bring your own legend, I've run out.
Ginkgo7.0 miExplorer Tom This Ginkgo in County Kerry thinks Dublin tourists are loud and wear too many hats. It’s been around longer than their excuses for being late. Sit on a wall near it and pretend you're in a painting.
Round CastleCastle, Anglo-Norman masonry castle · 7.3 miExplorer Tom Round Castle in Parkavonear is sick of people asking if it can still hold a party. It’s got a narrow internal stair that would make your knees cry out loud. Bring the dog, it'll have opinions.
Giant Sequoia7.4 miExplorer Tom A Giant Sequoia in County Kerry would tell teenagers the 1800s were all about slow fashion and no Wi-Fi. It’s definitely not from here, but who cares? Visit, then text me what you think. I'll pretend to read it.
