Fairy fort / stone ringfort in DoolinFairy fort / stone ringfort · 153 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Another Fairy fort / stone ringfort in Doolin has a collapsed wall that looks like a sneeze. The ground slopes steeply, so gravity is definitely against you here. Snap one photo, then put the phone away and actually look at the mess.
Enclosure in TeergoneanEnclosure · 186 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Enclosure in Teergonean looks like it gave up halfway through building itself, leaving a D-shape that just says 'whatever'. It’s buried under grass and looking very unimpressed by your arrival. Pretend it's yours and plan the housewarming, even if the only guest is a sheep.
Children's playground1102 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom This children's playground is a hub of energy, where kids can run, play, and have endless adventures.
Doonmacfelim Castle (in Ruins)Castle, tower house · 1254 ydExplorer Tom Doonmacfelim Castle was built on a mound because the builder had zero imagination. It changed hands so often it probably forgot its own name. Stand where the owner stood and practise looking smug.
bridge1349 ydExplorer Tom Bridge in Doolin has twelve spans and some concrete patches, looking like it’s had a few makeovers since 1775. Go back in winter, it's a different animal.
Doolin PointHeadland · 1413 ydExplorer Tom Doolin Point features a limestone platform in County Clare, where Atlantic waves crash energetically against the rock face.
Wild Atlantic Way: Doolin PierVisitor information · 1457 ydExplorer Tom Wild Atlantic Way: Doolin Pier has me imagining a place where the pier is as long as the tide
Roadford BridgeBridge · 1576 ydExplorer Tom Roadford Bridge has six arches, which is a lot of effort for something you just walk across. Built in 1810, it’s probably tired of carrying cars instead of horses. Bring your worst joke, the place has heard worse from drunk farmers since the Victorian era.
Ballaghaline PointHeadland · 1715 ydExplorer Tom Ballaghaline Point looks out toward Crab Island and Inisheer from this headland, framing a lovely view across the water.
Crab IslandIslet · 1.0 miExplorer Tom Crab Island, an islet in County Clare, is a bit of a wild spot with a long, rocky shoreline.
Doonagore Castle in ruinsCastle, tower house · 1.4 miExplorer Tom Doonagore Castle in ruins is playing hard to get in County Clare. I reckon a ghost lives there now and eats all the mail. Bring your own biscuits, because the locals definitely hoard them.
KnockacarnMountain / peak · 1.7 miComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Knockacarn is a rugged presence in the hills, its summit marked by the enduring strength of the land it guards.
