The GravesBurial ground · 344 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom The Graves in Carlow are lined up along the River Barrow with headstones from the 1700s and later. No walls, just vibes. Sit on a wall near it and pretend you're in a moody oil painting.
TombTomb, effigial · 396 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom The Tomb of Robert Hartpole, Constable of Carlow Castle, has journeyed from St. Mary’s church to Oak Park and now rests in the County Museum.
An Gháirdín BeoGarden · 411 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Imagine a garden in County Carlow where the Irish name An Gháirdín Beo hints at lively, buzzing green life all year round.
Carlow Town Park PlaygroundChildren's playground · 418 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Carlow Town Park Playground in County Carlow is playing hide-and-seek with me. The swings move on their own at dusk, probably because the kids just love the view from up there.
Battle of CarlowBattle · 533 ydExplorer Tom Battle of Carlow is where the history books got their first concussion. I bet some fairy was fighting over parking rights back then. Have a look and decide if I was lying.
CastleCastle, Anglo-Norman masonry castle · 575 ydExplorer Tom Castle in Carlow is a limestone keep with circular towers, basically a stone donut with opinions. It’s seen better centuries, but still rocks the crenellations. Have a chat with it, nobody’s watching anyway.
Rathnapish/Askea Slí na SláinteWalking route · 1050 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Rathnapish/Askea Slí na Sláinte is a walking route in County Carlow, connecting two areas with scenic views.
Killeshin ChurchChurch/chapel · 1096 ydExplorer Tom Killeshin Church is doing its best to look spiky and serious, but it’s just a tiny granite box from 1827. It’s on a reality show right now, probably arguing with the other churches about who has the better spire. A good place to forget your phone for ten minutes.
Pedunculate Oak1589 ydExplorer Tom Pedunculate Oak has caught my eye in County Laois. I bet a pedunculate oak with a name like that could keep me talking all afternoon; I'm already inventing a daft little scene for it, and I'll stop before it turns into history.
Oak Park HouseDemesne walls/gates/railings · 1683 ydExplorer Tom Oak Park House gateway is a triumphal arch that thinks it’s in Rome, flanked by giant Ionic columns that are just standing there being pretentious. The Morrisons designed it in 1835, probably to impress people who didn’t know what they were looking at. Bring a jacket, it's never as warm as I promise.
White willow1.1 miExplorer Tom White willow in County Carlow claims to be older than the concept of time itself, which is a bold claim for a shrub. I believe it because I'm tired. Find the date carved somewhere and feel clever, even if you just guessed.
Oak Park loopWalking route · 2.2 miComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Oak Park loop has caught my eye in County Kildare. I bet a walking route with a name like that could keep me talking all afternoon; I'm already inventing a daft little scene for it, and I'll stop before it turns into history.
