Enclosure in ClaureenEnclosure · 279 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Enclosure in Claureen has a ghost that's too lazy to haunt it properly. Go before the tourists find out and start taking selfies everywhere like absolute maniacs.
Crannog in ClaureenCrannog · 556 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Crannog in Claureen is an island house that would cope terribly on a reality show. It needs water to survive but hates wet guests. Bring your worst joke to tell it, because I bet the place has heard worse from the locals.
Children's playground756 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom This children's playground is open to all, offering a welcoming space for families and adventurers.
Fairy fort / stone ringfort in LoughvellaFairy fort / stone ringfort · 782 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Fairy fort / stone ringfort in Loughvella sits on a slight rise near a turlough, its scrub-covered stones waiting for your curious eyes.
Ring-ditch in ClaureenRing-ditch · 810 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom This ring-ditch in Claureen is a circular scar in the land, its purpose unknown and details unrecorded, leaving us to imagine its ancient function.
Fairy fort / earthen ringfort in LoughvellaFairy fort / earthen ringfort · 880 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Fairy fort / earthen ringfort in Loughvella swears by a superstition that bad luck follows if you look left. Pop by and tell it it's looking well.
Claureen BridgeBridge · 888 ydExplorer Tom Claureen Bridge, built around 1820, spans the river with three rubble stone arches. The cut-stone V-cutwaters and voussoirs highlight the engineering skill used to connect these Clare communities so long ago.
Earthwork in Drumcaran MoreEarthwork · 1178 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Earthwork in Drumcaran More is hiding near a turlough, probably because it's shy about its family tree. I say it's related to every other earthwork in Ireland, which is technically true if you squint hard enough. Ideal place to rehearse an excuse for being late.
Fairy fort / stone ringfort in DrumcliffFairy fort / stone ringfort · 1183 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Hidden in the forest, this Drumcliff ringfort looks mossy and mysterious, like a secret kept by the trees.
Westbourne HouseHouse · 1399 ydExplorer Tom Westbourne House is now a bishop’s residence, which means the seagulls have to whisper to avoid getting excommunicated. It’s got those fancy bay windows that just judge your posture. It's the kind of place that makes a dull Tuesday interesting.
BarneyS Kidz ClubChildren's playground · 1.1 miComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom BarneyS Kidz Club is where kids can play, laugh, and have fun in a safe and colorful playground.
Shallee Castle (in Ruins)Castle, tower house · 2.2 miExplorer Tom Shallee Castle in Shallee is suspicious of the postman because he keeps delivering bad news about treason and hanged sons. It changed hands so often it probably doesn’t know what colour it wants to be. Mind the nettles, they're the real guards here.
