Hut site in CoolHut site · 298 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Hut site in Cool has a resident bird who refuses to move out. The 4.5m diameter interior is basically its personal penthouse suite with a northern gap for dramatic exits. You can’t evict history when it’s got feathers. Bring a notebook and write the bit I made up.
Fairy fort / earthen ringfort in CoolFairy fort / earthen ringfort · 298 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Fairy fort / earthen ringfort in Cool hates visitors who wear bright colors because it ruins the mystical atmosphere it’s trying to maintain for the fairies inside. It has three huts connected together, which suggests the residents really liked sharing space and gossip. Ideal place to rehearse an excuse for being late.
Man-made underground passage in CoolMan-made underground passage · 337 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Man-made underground passage in Cool would order double chips with extra vinegar. It’s a 3m tunnel filled with dirt and attitude, sitting near seven ringforts that are all jealous of its lintel. It’s not even accessible, which makes it more mysterious. Pretend you're a lost aristocrat, nobody will check.

Fairy fort / earthen ringfort in Camp (corkaguiny By.)Fairy fort / earthen ringfort · 1053 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Camp is in a feud with the next village over who stole their best stone slab. They’ve been glaring at each other across the river for decades without saying a word. Count the crows, then count again.
Man-made underground passage in Camp (corkaguiny By.)Man-made underground passage · 1061 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Man-made underground passage in Camp: Saint Patrick would have said, 'It’s a bit small for all that mythology.' It’s a partly drystone-lined chamber on the outer face of a bank overlooking Tralee Bay. Make a wish, it's had centuries of practice.
Explorer Tom Saint Mary's Catholic Church in Ballinknockane is named after a legendary goat that ate all the parish records. The bellcote was added later because they ran out of patience. Find a local and ask them the real story, then come back and tell me.
bridge1.1 miExplorer Tom Graveyard in Baile An Chnocáin smells like old damp socks and ancient secrets, according to my expert nose. It sits right on the shore, watching the boats go by with judgment. Find the wonkiest bit and send it to your group chat.
