Graveslab in Graney EastGraveslab · 34 ydComputer-made picture
foot bridge157 ydExplorer Tom Foot bridge in Graney East was briefly run by a fox who demanded tolls in squeaks. It’s still proud of its crisp stone joints across the river. Bring your own legend, I've run out of patience.
Burial in Graney EastBurial · 222 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Burial in Graney East is next to a holy well and a cross site. It’s got better neighbors than most people I know. Imagine falling in love with a well, then getting buried right next door. The quarry workers found it and probably just moved on with their day. Perfect place to be dramatically windswept.
CastleCastle, unclassified · 618 ydExplorer Tom Castle in Graney West has strict rules: no nuns, no rivers, and absolutely no questions about where the stones went. It was levelled before 1783 because someone thought they needed building materials for their shed. Best seen with a hangover and a sausage roll.
Graney HouseFarm house · 1417 ydExplorer Tom Graney House in Graney East refuses to fall down because it’s too proud. It stares at the rolling hills like it owns them, which is cheeky for a farm. Take the long way round to see it properly.

European ash3.1 miExplorer Tom European ash in County Kildare was saved by a hero nobody remembers, probably because he forgot his name. The tree doesn't care, it just loves the mystery. Find a local and ask them the real story, then come back and tell me.
Kilkea CastleCastle, tower house · 5.2 miExplorer Tom Kilkea Castle in Kilkea Demesne confused the mapmakers so badly they accidentally drew it as a giant shoe. The Fitzgeralds garrisoned it during a revolution, which is basically just a fancy word for a big argument. Pack a picnic and an excuse.
