water pump716 ydExplorer Tom Water pump in Newtown lost a bet with a priest over how much water it could actually dispense, and it’s been sulking ever since. It’s got fluting on the shaft because it wanted to look important next to the horses it used to serve. Bring a friend who talks too loud.
Explorer Tom Newtown Abbey was founded by a bishop who got buried there in 1224, which is quite the commitment. Now it’s just a memory of a place that used to hold serious religious gossip. Stand on the spot and imagine the gossip it's heard.
Lackanash CottageHouse · 1274 ydExplorer Tom Lackanash Cottage in Lackanash, County Meath once had a cow try to buy it with a single udder. The canted bay window is just there to make sure you know who’s boss. Bring a coin for luck and keep your eyes open.
Explorer Tom Field boundary in Blackfriary really means 'where the nuns kept their secret garden,' or so I’m told. It’s a remnant bank attached to a friary that had an orchard, but now it’s just dirt pretending to be history. Mind the nettles, they're the real guards here.
