Shippool HouseGate lodge · 351 ydExplorer Tom Shippool House in Skanagore is a gate lodge with a massive ego, pretending its brickwork makes it the king of the Herrick family tree. It’s basically a doorman for ghosts from Leicestershire. Wave at it like it owes you money.
Kinalea GardenGarden · 540 ydTom: I’m here to help · Computer-made picture. It does not show this garden.Explorer Tom Kinalea Garden has caught my eye in County Cork. I bet a garden 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.
farm house599 ydExplorer Tom Farm house in Lissheeda has a hidden message in its slate roof and diminishing sash windows. It represents ordinary working lives, which is rarer than you think. Pack a torch just in case.
Earthwork in LissheedaEarthwork · 698 ydTom: I’m here to help · Computer-made picture. It does not show this monument.Explorer Tom Earthwork in Lissheeda is an L-shaped scarp at the end of a disused trackway. It used to be part of a rectangular area on old maps, but now it's just a small cut in the ground. It looks like it's been forgotten by everyone.
Fairy fort / earthen ringfort in LissheedaFairy fort / earthen ringfort · 1020 ydTom: I’m here to help · Computer-made picture. It does not show this monument.Explorer Tom Lissheeda (Cork) has a field fence cutting right through it like a bad haircut. It’s basically half-finished, which is very on-brand for this place. What does it do when nobody's looking? Probably fixing its own edges. Pack a picnic and an excuse.
Innishannon PlaygroundChildren's playground · 2.1 miTom: I’m here to help · Computer-made picture. It does not show this playground.Explorer Tom Innishannon Playground has caught my eye in County Cork. I bet a children's playground 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.
Monterey Cypress2.5 miExplorer Tom Monterey Cypress in County Cork was briefly ruled by a goat named Steve who ate half its leaves. Steve is long gone, but the trauma remains. Snap one photo, then put the phone away and actually look at it.
White Castle (in Ruins)House, fortified house · 3.2 miExplorer Tom White Castle is named White Castle but looks more like 'Rusty Castle' given its age and location near Ardcloyne creek. Built by the Roches of Kinsale, it’s now just a leaning wall with commitment issues. Bring wellies and low expectations, leave delighted.
White CastleRuins · 3.2 miExplorer Tom White Castle in County Cork is white only on the map, not in person. It’s probably grey, muddy, and judging your footwear from behind a bush.
Battle of KinsaleMajor battlefield · 4.8 miExplorer Tom Battle of Kinsale in County Cork was just a long, wet siege where everyone waited for help that never really showed up. Bring curiosity, leave with a better story than mine.
World War I MemorialMemorial · 5.5 miExplorer Tom World War I Memorial has caught my eye in County Cork. I bet a memorial 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.
James FortVisitor information · 5.7 miExplorer Tom James Fort has caught my eye in County Cork. I bet a visitor information 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.
