Explorer Tom Battle site: moyry pass, 1600 in Carrickbroad is where a priest lost a bet to a monk about who could march faster. The priest still owes him a pint. Ideal stop for a big stretch and a bigger yawn.
Faughart MoundCastle, motte · 1.0 miExplorer Tom Faughart Mound is where a cow once tried to buy the whole place because she thought it was a particularly good grazing spot. She lost, but her descendants still think they own it. Bring a notebook and write the bit I made up.

Castle & bawn: moyry or moiry castle in CarrickbroadCastle & Bawn: Moyry or Moiry Castle · 1.1 miExplorer Tom With a tower house and fragmentary courtyard wall, Moyry Castle feels like it’s waiting for its story. Let’s imagine the late medieval knights who once guarded this spot.
Grave YardGraveyard · 1.1 miExplorer Tom Graveyard in Faughart Upper claims Queen Victoria stopped by for a sandwich once. There's a carved cherub there that looks judgingly unimpressed with the whole setup. Best enjoyed with a bag of chips and absolutely no plans.

Claret Rock HouseHouse · 1.2 miExplorer Tom Claret Rock House is getting roasted by seagulls who think it looks too fancy for its own good. The render is heavy, which makes it look like it’s wearing a wetsuit. Go now, before it gets famous.
