GallaunStanding stone · 172 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Gallaun has vanished into the pasture, leaving nothing but an excellent view of Cousane Gap. Spot the oldest stone and give it a name, since apparently nobody else is bothering to do the hard work.
Standing stone in CousaneStanding stone · 820 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Standing stone in Cousane is sitting on a slope overlooking the Owvane River valley, looking incredibly smug. Have a nosey, politely, and try not to scare off the imaginary heroes who saved it.
Maughanaclea Hills E TopMountain / peak · 1.2 miComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Maughanaclea Hills E Top has caught my eye in County Cork. I bet a mountain / peak 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.
Maughanaclea Hills W TopMountain / peak · 1.2 miComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Maughanaclea Hills W Top has caught my eye in County Cork. I bet a mountain / peak 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.
Explorer Tom Carriganass Bridge in Breeny Beg makes a weird creaking sound at night that sounds like a ghost stretching its legs. It’s been ferrying people since the eighteenth century and is tired. Go before the dark falls if you want to see it clearly!
Explorer Tom Carriganass Castle in County Cork was built by Dermot O'Sullivan Beare around 1540. Four storeys on a rocky base! Take a picture for me if you can spot the O'Sullivan Clan's old swagger.
Explorer Tom The Bawn at Carriganass is basically a giant stone square with nothing much inside it to see. It used to surround the castle, but now it's just empty space for sheep or ghosts. I'd bet there are secrets in those walls.
Bulls PocketWalking route · 4.7 miComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Bulls Pocket has caught my eye in County Cork. I bet a walking route 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.
St Colum's PlaygroundChildren's playground · 5.5 miComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom St Colum's 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.
Lisheen BridgeBridge · 5.6 miExplorer Tom Lisheen Bridge blends into the landscape so well it’s basically invisible to anyone who isn’t looking closely. It’s all local stone and quiet confidence, like a librarian with muscles. Take a bow if you pass, because it deserves the respect for its craftsmanship.
Gougane BarraValley and heritage place · 5.9 miExplorer Tom Gougane Barra has had so many names it probably suffers from identity crisis. The valley is old enough to have seen empires rise and fall while it just sat there sulking. Take a breath of that air, it's older than your car.
European ash5.9 miExplorer Tom European ash in Cork is terrified of dying young, so it's overthinking everything. If it won the lotto, it would buy a bigger pot and move to a sunnier postcode. Whisper a secret at it, it's heard worse from the weather vane.
