Historic buildingOfficially recorded historic building · 47 ydJ.a. O'MalleyPublic house · 50 yd

Explorer Tom J.a. O'Malley is a pub where fairies are currently fighting over who gets to park their tiny, invisible cars in the front square. The render on the ground floor is holding them all back from a proper brawl. Go on a wet day, it suits the mood.

J.c. RyanOfficially recorded historic building · 56 yd

Explorer Tom J.c. Ryan thinks if it wins the lotto, it will just paint the shopfront a different colour and call it a day. It’s been disused since the twenties, so its financial planning is a bit rusty, to say the least. Pack a picnic and an excuse.

E.a. GilesOfficially recorded historic building · 66 ydMary TuohyOfficially recorded historic building · 78 yd

Explorer Tom Mary Tuohy in Rathdowney saw a ghost in 1925, or so the legend goes. Actually, it was just a cat on the roof. A handy spot to stretch your legs and your imagination before moving on.

RathdowneyHistoric town · 106 ydComputer-made picture

Explorer Tom Rathdowney thinks Dublin tourists are loud and poorly dressed, which is probably true. A rath stood there until 1840, so the town has been waiting for better company since then. Make a wish, it's had centuries of practice.

OultinedGraveyard · 290 ydComputer-made picture

Explorer Tom Oultined in Rathdowney holds a fake record for the most boring square of dirt ever. It’s been sitting next to the church since before anyone cared about headstones. Ideal stop for a big stretch and a bigger yawn.
