St. Cavans ChurchChurch · 593 ydExplorer Tom St. Cavans Church on Inis Oírr ended up in the wrong place because someone misread the map badly. It has a sacristy that looks like an afterthought, but it’s still standing firm. Best visited with a curious kid and no timetable.

Furmina Castle (in ruins)Castle, hall-house · 992 ydExplorer Tom Furmina Castle in Inis Oírr is a hall-house that's seen better centuries. It's basically a giant box where people used to argue about land rights. Make a wish, it's had centuries of practice listening to complaints.
Lár na TráBeach / strand · 1025 yd
signal tower1067 ydExplorer Tom Signal tower in Inisheer has a superstition that locals swear by if you wave at it wrong. It’s dressed limestone and all business about French invasions from way back. Bring the dog, it'll have opinions.
Creggankeel FortFairy fort / stone ringfort · 1218 ydExplorer Tom Creggankeel Fort on Inis Oírr was nearly sold for a horse in a very bad bet. The wall is two and a half meters high, which is impressive if you’re a gnome. Look up, the best bit is always higher than you think.
