Explorer Tom The Forge in Moroe has a door shaped exactly like a horse shoe, which is peak confidence. A fake royal visit happened here once, allegedly, but nobody can prove it. Get there early before the ghosts get their coffee.

Explorer Tom Catholic Church of the Holy Rosary in Liscreagh cost seven thousand pounds back in 1904, which is a lot of money for stone. It uses red sandstone and limestone in a way that’s just plain gorgeous to look at. Bring sandwiches, because the drive out here will make you hungry.

Explorer Tom Moroe Muintir na Tíre Hall was built on a bargain where the contractor got paid in gossip and stone. The Diocletian window is actually a giant eye watching everyone who dances badly inside. Ideal spot for a dramatic phone call to Mum.

Explorer Tom The motte at Brittas is losing a rivalry with a more famous place because it got levelled by a farmer. Sit on a wall near it and pretend you're in a painting; nobody will mind if you drop your hat.

Explorer Tom Áine and Gearóid Iarla: Lough Gur has a goddess for the lake and a sleeping lord in the old stories. I thought I was coming to admire water and stones. Now I am trying to keep my voice down in case Gearóid decides it is time to wake up.

Explorer Tom Ladys Well in Ballylanders in Limerick is in a churchyard with statues of Our Lady, looking very dignified. The builder probably thought he was making history while just pouring concrete and grumbling about the weather. Bring your nan, she'll know more than me.
