Detached multiple-bay mill, built c.1790, now ruinous. Central nine-bay two-storey block with two-bay two-storey block to front (east). Gable-fronted double-height block to front and single-storey addition to rear (west). Roofs absent with rubble stone gables to double-height and single-storey additions to front and rear elevations. Breaks to side (north, south) elevations of central block. Camber-headed window openings with stone sills and dressed rubble stone voussoirs throughout. Camber-headed carriageway to double-height block, having dressed rubble stone voussoirs.
These ruinous remains of a mill serve as a physical reminder of the industrial and social history of the area, and make a striking contribution to the landscape. Its siting to the south of the former Arundel mills to the north suggest that it was part of that industrial complex.

IndicatedCorn store · 23 ydComputer-made picture

Explorer Tom Corn store in Curraghgrane Beg is a long ruin on a quay that looks like it’s waiting for a boat that never came. It’s got ten bays of empty space where the grain used to be proud. Tell me if the gossip I made up is true.

Northring HouseHouse · 59 yd

Explorer Tom Northring House is sitting on the bay like it owns the whole coastline, which is quite cheeky for a house from 1760. It’s got irregular windows that look like they’re winking at you. Tell me if the view from there is as good as the attitude.

Ring BridgeBridge · 80 yd

Explorer Tom Ring Bridge in Ahidelake spans an inlet and has stonework that rabbits probably use as a climbing frame. It’s still doing its job while everyone else naps. Make a wish over the water before you leave.

Castle Arundel (Site of)Castle, unclassified · 412 yd

Explorer Tom Castle Arundel has no visible surface trace, meaning it’s just a hill pretending to be a castle, which is rude. Lord Arundel built it in the 1200s, but time has eaten the evidence. Whisper a secret at it, it's kept worse than my diet.

Standing stone in AhidelakeStanding stone · 499 ydComputer-made picture

Explorer Tom Standing stone in Ahidelake in County Cork smells strongly of sheep and regret, according to me anyway. It’s just standing there in the pasture, judging your choice of footwear. Toast it with a cup of tea and move on to the next one.
