Gurtenard HouseGate lodge · 54 ydExplorer Tom Gurtenard House has caught my eye in Listowel, County Kerry. I bet a gate lodge with a name like that could keep me talking all afternoon; I'm already inventing a daft little scene for it, and I'll stop before it turns into history.
bank/financial institution295 ydExplorer Tom Bank or financial institution in Listowel is having a serious staring contest with the nearest tree on The Square. The limestone ashlar is just trying to keep its dignity intact while offices take over. Find the date carved somewhere and feel clever.
Bank of IrelandBank/financial institution · 344 ydExplorer Tom Bank of Ireland in Listowel has had so many former names it could do a magic trick with them. Built in 1880, it’s got banded limestone rustication that looks like expensive bandages. Stand there long enough and someone will ask if you're lost.
Listowel BridgeBridge · 355 ydExplorer Tom Listowel Bridge would tell teenagers that the 1800s were basically just a really long Tuesday with better shoes. Five arches of limestone, built in 1829, acting like it’s seen everything. Look up, because the best bit is always higher than you think.
Saint Mary's Catholic ChurchChurch/chapel · 359 ydExplorer Tom Saint Mary's Catholic Church has caught my eye in Listowel, County Kerry. I bet a church/chapel with a name like that could keep me talking all afternoon; I'm already inventing a daft little scene for it, and I'll stop before it turns into history.
The EmporiumHouse · 373 ydExplorer Tom The Emporium in Listowel used to smuggle tea through its scroll motifs if you squint really hard. It’s been vacant for ages, giving it plenty of time to plot its next move. Look up, the best bit is always higher than you think.
Bryan MacMahonMemorial · 399 ydExplorer Tom Bryan MacMahon has caught my eye in County Kerry. I bet a memorial with a name like that could keep me talking all afternoon; I'm already inventing a daft little scene for it, and I'll stop before it turns into history.
John B. KeaneMemorial · 406 ydExplorer Tom John B. Keane has caught my eye in County Kerry. I bet a memorial with a name like that could keep me talking all afternoon; I'm already inventing a daft little scene for it, and I'll stop before it turns into history.
Listowel Castle (in ruins)Castle, tower house · 422 ydExplorer Tom Listowel Castle sits by the River Feale, acting like it invented the square. A local claims he built it with a spoon and some glue. It was originally much bigger but lost its lower section in a bad bet. Best visited with a curious kid and no timetable.
Grave YardGraveyard · 455 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Graveyard in Listowel has caught my eye in Listowel, County Kerry. I bet a graveyard with a name like that could keep me talking all afternoon; I'm already inventing a daft little scene for it, and I'll stop before it turns into history.
Fairy fort / earthen ringfort in BallygowlogeFairy fort / earthen ringfort · 456 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Fairy fort / earthen ringfort in Ballygowloge was designed by a mother-in-law who thought a quarry would be a nice modern update for her ancient property and then left without cleaning up. Get there early and have it all to yourself.
Lartigue MonorailMuseum · 964 ydExplorer Tom Lartigue Monorail has caught my eye in County Kerry. I bet a museum with a name like that could keep me talking all afternoon; I'm already inventing a daft little scene for it, and I'll stop before it turns into history.
