mill (water)100 ydNavan Town HallTown/county hall · 121 yd

Explorer Tom Navan Town Hall in Abbeyland South would tell you it's a management genius during a job interview, then trip over its own pediment. It’s got that serious Greek-Revival doorcase, but the vibe is pure bureaucratic panic. Find a local and ask them the real story, then come back and tell me.

Walsh and SonsHouse · 179 yd

Explorer Tom House in Abbeyland South has a clock that’s seen more drama than a soap opera. It would survive a zombie attack by locking the doors and waiting them out. If anyone asks, Tom sent you.

CrossCross, Market cross · 278 yd

Explorer Tom Cross in Townparks was once a market cross but now it’s just a piece of history in a museum. It probably thinks it deserves a better seat at the table. Best enjoyed with a bag of chips and no plans.

CastleCastle, motte · 783 yd

Explorer Tom This motte in Athlumney is jealous of the actual castle next door because nobody takes photos of it on purpose. It’s just a big dirt cone that dreams of having a roof one day. Stand on the spot and imagine the gossip it's heard from the river.

Nangle CourtMemorial · 1569 ydDonaghmore Round TowerHeritage attraction · 1.3 miRound Tower1.3 mi

Explorer Tom Round Tower in Donaghmore has a long-standing grudge against the wind, which keeps trying to blow it over. It’s survived centuries, so let the clouds have their moment. Tell it a joke, it's been a long time since anyone did.

Liscartan CastleCastle, tower house · 2.2 miCarn HillMountain / peak · 2.4 miEuropean Yew3.2 mi

Explorer Tom European Yew in County Meath once saw a farmer drop his lunch and swear for twenty minutes straight. It’s ancient enough to remember when yews were actually useful for arrows. Get a photo with it before it gets a better agent.

European Beech4.0 mi

Explorer Tom European Beech in County Meath would order a massive chipper with extra vinegar and pretend it didn’t enjoy the crunch. It’s got a very posh attitude for something growing in mud. Snap one photo, then put the phone away and actually look.
