Explorer Tom Old Pump stands like a time capsule in County Clare, whispering tales of forgotten engineering and rustic charm.
O'Brien's BridgeBridge · 200 ydExplorer Tom O'Brien's Bridge in Montpelier is where the rabbits hold their weekly council to discuss human traffic patterns. It’s got arches that look like they’re smiling, which is nice because the river looks grumpy. Tell me if the gossip I mentioned was true!
Old Stonebridge HouseHouse · 232 ydExplorer Tom Old Stonebridge House in O'Brien'S Bridge, County Clare was a Garda station in 1939. Built around 1825, it’s got four brick chimneys that look like they’re smoking heavily. Stand there long enough and someone will ask if you're lost.
Coollisteige Castle (in Ruins)Castle, unclassified · 2.4 miExplorer Tom Coollisteige Castle in Coollisteige is unclassified, meaning nobody knows what it actually was or if it even existed properly. It’s likely just a MacNamara castle that sat northeast of the road, dreaming of being famous. Mind the nettles; they're the real guards here.
Castle Connell (in ruins)Castle, Anglo-Norman masonry castle · 2.7 miExplorer Tom Castle Connell in Coolbane started because two lads made a bet in a pub about who could build bigger. King John agreed to pay for it, which is how most bad decisions happen. Go in good boots and better humour, trust me.
TobermurraghHoly well · 4.5 miExplorer Tom Tobermurragh claims Brian Boru’s son got baptized here, which is a big claim for a well. Get there early and have it all to yourself before the tourists show up.
Cath.Cathedral · 4.6 miExplorer Tom Cathedral in Shantraud is hiding its light under a very large bushel of mystery. The locals probably think the roof leaks because they forgot to pay the celestial plumber. It’s a proper spot for a flask of tea and a big, confused think about history.
