Rusty Nail

Explorer Tom Crossconnell National School's 1928 porch gave boys and girls separate doors for a two-room school. The survey later recorded it as an unused house. I would have needed to think hard before choosing the right door on the first morning.

Explorer Tom Glenevin Waterfall sits at the head of a maintained walk near Clonmany, one of the few falls with a proper path.

Explorer Tom Clonmany Church was built in 1772, but a 1690 map puts a church and a castle in the surrounding area. The later church may stand on an older church site. The castle can stay on its own map mark; I am not giving this church a moat just because they shared a map.

Explorer Tom Clonmany Early Church Graveyard hides a stone with two cupmarks called St. Colmcille's knee-prints. I reckon a kneeling saint would need much larger knees to leave that kind of impression, but tradition is a stubborn thing.

Explorer Tom Raghtin More stands tall in Inishowen, reaching a respectable 502 meters according to our notes. It’s not just a peak; it’s the sort of place where the wind really tells you who’s boss up here.

Explorer Tom Ballyliffin Hotel number one is probably the quiet one. See if you can find a room with a view of nothing but sky for peace.

Explorer Tom Dunaff Hill sits in County Donegal, offering a coastal view that seems to be winking at passing ships. It has no recorded access route, so it might just be standing there with its arms crossed, daring you to find the right side.

Explorer Tom Imagine a Children's playground in County Donegal where the wind howls louder than the kids, turning every swing into a dramatic pirate ship.

Explorer Tom Gap of Mamore Viewpoint sits along the Wild Atlantic Way, offering a dramatic look at this famous gap in County Donegal.
