Fairy fort / earthen ringfort in KillardFairy fort / earthen ringfort · 579 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Fairy fort / earthen ringfort in Killard is getting roasted by local seagulls who call it 'the wobbly donut'.

ToberculinorindowanHoly well · 784 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Toberculinorindowan in Killard is the site of a smuggling ring that traded in bad jokes and soggy biscuits. The name is a tongue-twister because the smugglers were drunk. Spot the oldest stone and give it a name like 'Kevin'.
Doonmore Castle (in Ruins)Castle, tower house · 1.1 miExplorer Tom Doonmore Castle is destroyed but still taking up space in my head like a bad memory. It was nearly sold for a horse, which honestly seems fair given the condition. Go in good boots and better humour.

bridge1.9 miExplorer Tom Bridge in Doonbeg has a dog in charge who barks at any car that honks too loud. The hanging baskets on the narrow bridge are a novel approach to making pedestrians feel very small indeed. Bring a flask of something warm and a story to swap.
Saint Senan's Catholic ChurchChurch/chapel · 2.1 miExplorer Tom Saint Senan's Catholic Church in Carrowblough Beg is an 1870 church with projecting confessionals that look like little side rooms for secrets. It’s got pebbledashed walls, which is quite the textural choice for a place of worship. Find the wonkiest bit and send it to your group chat.
