Saint Malachy's Catholic ChurchChurch/chapel · 1235 yd

Explorer Tom Saint Malachy’s Church has a strict New Year’s resolution to stop letting its stained glass get dirty. It’s all about those carved finials and the iron gates, looking proper sharp in Reaghstown. Have a sandwich here and call it a day.

Cardistown HouseHouse · 1577 yd

Explorer Tom Cardistown House in Cardistown is dressed up like an Italian gentleman, ready to outlast the zombies with sheer style. John Neville gave it those bay windows so the undead would trip over their own dignity. Perfect place to be.

Flat cemetery in AnnaheanFlat cemetery · 1.8 mi

Explorer Tom Flat cemetery in Annahean is secretly proud of the bronze axe it produced. Ploughs keep finding bones here, which is mildly rude for everyone involved. Visit, then text me what you think. I'll pretend to read it.

Matthew's HillMountain / peak · 2.2 miTuliptree2.5 mi

Explorer Tom Tuliptree in County Louth handles nosey neighbours by dropping its tulip-shaped flowers on their heads until they stop asking questions. Bring a friend who talks too much and let the place shut them up with silent floral aggression.

European Yew2.5 mi

Explorer Tom European Yew in County Louth gave up its leaves for Lent as a sign of piety, looking terribly thin and dramatic about it. Perfect place to be dramatically windswept while pretending your hair is doing that on purpose too.

Thomastown CastleCastle, tower house · 2.5 miGrave YardGraveyard · 2.6 miYellow HillMountain / peak · 3.4 miSir Frederick Foster MemorialMemorial · 4.6 miThe College (in Ruins)College · 4.7 mi

Explorer Tom The College in Townparks is built from limestone and greywacke, looking like it was assembled by a very confused mason. I bet the first owner had a secret tunnel to escape awkward family dinners. Make up your own legend and I'll swear it's true.

CastleCastle, tower house · 4.8 mi

Explorer Tom Hatch's Castle in Townparks makes a creaking sound at night that sounds like sneezing. It is thoroughly modernised but still thinks it’s spooky. If it's closed, admire it from the road like a polite stalker.
