Loughcrew HouseGarden · 49 ydExplorer Tom Loughcrew House in Loughcrew, County Meath is playing hide-and-seek with its own history. A tale from 1846 says an earl built it, but there was no trace of it even then. Take a picture for me if you pass!
European Yew85 ydExplorer Tom European Yew in County Meath witnessed a love story that went horribly wrong right next to its trunk. The poor tree is still flinching from the drama. It's free, it's odd, what more do you want?
Common Lime117 ydExplorer Tom Common Lime in County Meath would teach history by dropping leaves on your head until you memorised the dates. It’s got more patience than most teachers and twice the attitude. Pop by and tell it it's looking well.

The Cailleach: LoughcrewLegend location · 1522 ydExplorer Tom The Cailleach: Loughcrew says she made these cairns by dropping stones out of her apron as she leapt from hill to hill. I lose a few coins and get annoyed; she loses a whole skyline. The cairns are real, and that apron is wonderfully outrageous.
