water trough17 ydExplorer Tom Water trough in Townparks (St. Nicholas' Parish) is a stone basin that used to hydrate horses, but now it just looks confused. A local claims he invented the concept of watering holes, which is either genius or total madness, honestly I can't tell. Look up, the best view is actually the sky above it.
Saint Patrick's HallChurch/chapel · 78 ydExplorer Tom Saint Patrick's Hall in Townparks used to be a church but now throws parties. If it were a person, it would be the uncle who knows all the songs. Look for the Gothic details, they’re screaming!

Mechanics InstituteMemorial · 535 ydCastleCastle, tower house · 643 ydExplorer Tom Castle in Townparks is a tower house that probably teaches history by shouting at you from the top floor. The wind keeps picking on it, but it stands there looking unimpressed. Take a breath of that air, it's definitely older than your car engine.
