Explorer Tom Hanover Hall Bridge has cut-stone voussoirs that look like they’ve been polished by time and stubbornness. There’s a hidden message in the stones if you squint really hard. Bring your detective hat!
kiln1245 ydExplorer Tom Kiln in Coolaniddane is an 1820s limekiln that’s been sitting by the roadside doing nothing for ages. It’s got limestone walls and a segmental arch that remind you of when people were burning rock for fun, or at least for mortar.
Explorer Tom Macroom Castle in County Cork is posing for the cameras. It's part of the Munster collection, which sounds fancy. Don't let it know you're taking notes!
Explorer Tom Battle of Macroom in County Cork had a fake royal visit that nobody can disprove to this day. Ideal for a moody photo you'll pretend wasn't posed, just for the 'gram.
Macroom Castle (in Ruins)Castle, tower house · 1.6 miExplorer Tom Macroom Castle was demolished to build a technical school, which is the kind of insult only Cork can pull off. It used to have two square towers that were just too much hassle. Bring a camera and your most suspicious face for the school.
Sessile Oak2.9 miExplorer Tom Sessile Oak in County Cork is having a mid-life crisis, refusing to shed its leaves like a normal tree. Spot the oldest stone and give it a name that sounds expensive.
Explorer Tom Knocknakilla is a megalithic complex between Macroom and Millstreet that looks like it’s been there forever. It’s got a very serious vibe about it. Don’t let it scare you, just be friendly.
Explorer Tom Glantane East in County Cork has a wedge tomb hiding out there. It’s from the Bronze Age, so it’s ancient! Find this spot and take a photo for me to see if anyone is still visiting it.
