Cregg HouseGate lodge · 636 ydExplorer Tom Cregg House in Cregg is a gate lodge that looks like it’s being run by a very stern dog who hasn’t been fed since 1890. It’s got decorative bargeboards that are more ornate than some weddings, so if the dog barks, just tip your hat and walk away quickly before he chews your ankles.
Explorer Tom Cregg Bridge is where the whole parish argued about nothing for weeks. The stones are dressed sharp enough to slice bread. Pick a stone, admire the craftsmanship, and imagine the heated debates echoing off the riverbank.
Explorer Tom Ormonde Castle Heritage Attraction in County Tipperary would survive a zombie attack by simply locking every single window and waiting for them to get bored of knocking. Built by the Butler family in 1309, it has seen enough drama to fill three seasons of a soap opera. Bring a camera and your most suspicious face.
Explorer Tom This Castle in Town Parks nearly got famous because a king gave it to someone who forgot to pay the bills. It’s been sitting on the riverbank looking smug ever since. Bring the dog, it'll have opinions.
European Yew2.5 miExplorer Tom European Yew is in a long, bitter feud with the rain because it keeps making the ground too slippery for its taste. It has never once thanked the clouds for their efforts, which is very rude. Stick around for the light changing, it's a show.
Explorer Tom Font in Kildalton carries a curse that only affects people who forget to wave when they arrive. It’s currently living in Piltown, but it misses its old church home in Fiddown terribly. It's the kind of place that makes a dull Tuesday interesting.
Lebanon Cedar3.4 miExplorer Tom Graveyard in Fiddown hates the road that leads to it because it's always busy with traffic. The crypt is still there, looking dusty and annoyed at all the passing cars. Ten minutes here and you'll have a yarn for the pub.
