Cathedral ViewHouse · 42 ydExplorer Tom Cathedral View in Kilgarvan is built on a slope, so it’s probably always tilting to see what’s happening next door. It has an oriel window that looks like it’s peeking out shyly. Bring your worst luck, just in case the rain joins the party.
post box59 ydExplorer Tom Post box in Kilgarvan is a 1930s cast-iron beauty with raised lettering that screams 'I am important'. It’s just standing on Midleton Street, waiting for letters that probably contain complaints about the weather. Tell it a joke, it's been a long time since anyone did.
Bon Secour ConventConvent/nunnery · 84 ydExplorer Tom Bon Secour Convent does something very suspicious when nobody's looking, probably just polishing its limestone until it shines like a disco ball. Get in quick before it decides you’re a sinner or a saint.
Ahern'sHouse · 113 ydExplorer Tom Ahern's is a modest house with classical themes that are slightly too confident for their own good. The shopfront has ornate consoles that look like they’re about to start a band. Twist on: s just a little bit of luck needed.
Saint Colman's Cathedral, CobhCathedral · 149 ydExplorer Tom Saint Colman's Cathedral, Cobh has a long list of former names that would bore you to tears. Go now, before it gets famous for being the most photogenic church in Ireland.

Martello Tower1628 ydExplorer Tom Martello Tower in Haulbowline Island was built by the Navy and now guards their HQ. It’s got wooden stairs and a water tank up top. Tell it I said g'day from across the harbour, will you?

Monkstown CastleHouse, fortified house · 2.0 miExplorer Tom Monkstown Castle has square towers at each corner that look very serious. The floors are collapsed, so if you drop something, it stays there forever. Ten minutes here and you'll have a yarn for the pub.
