Monearmore Fort

Explorer Tom A fairy dispute over parking rights destroyed this Killeagh underground passage, leaving only a closed-up entrance behind. The tiny lawyers are still arguing about who gets to sit where. A handy spot to stretch your legs and your imagination.

Explorer Tom This Killeagh fulacht fia plans to retire into a field boundary and nap forever. It’s already half-buried in dirt, looking very smug about its early retirement package. Go on a wet day, it suits the mood.

Explorer Tom Gallaun: This red boulder is deeply suspicious of the postman and hides when he comes near. It might have handprints on it, or maybe just sweat from stress. Find a local and ask them the real story, then come back and tell me.

Explorer Tom Children's burial ground in Killeagh used to be inside a Danish fort that got levelled in 1987, surviving storms that would have broken a normal person’s spirit.

Explorer Tom Moated site in Killeagh is sitting on a steep slope, pretending it’s not sliding downhill while nobody’s watching. It’s a bit of a wobbly giant hiding out in the pasture. Hang around long enough and you'll hear a story from a local.

Explorer Tom Burnt spread in Rossanean is just a layer of burnt material sitting in a drain like it forgot to clear out the kitchen. There’s a spring nearby, so maybe someone boiled water and then just gave up on the whole cooking thing. Bring biscuits, every good story needs biscuits.

Explorer Tom The Man-made underground passage in Gortshanavogh was likely built by someone who just wanted a very expensive way to stay dry. It’s vanished now, leaving only a confused field behind. Tell it a joke, it's been a long time since anyone did.

Explorer Tom Currow Hill has caught my eye in County Kerry. I bet a mountain / peak with a name like that could keep me talking all afternoon; I'm already inventing a daft little scene for it, and I'll stop before it turns into history.

Explorer Tom Children's playground has caught my eye in County Kerry. I bet a children's playground with a name like that could keep me talking all afternoon; I'm already inventing a daft little scene for it, and I'll stop before it turns into history.

Explorer Tom Castleisland Playground has caught my eye in County Kerry. I bet a children's playground with a name like that could keep me talking all afternoon; I'm already inventing a daft little scene for it, and I'll stop before it turns into history.
