Explorer Tom Catholic Church of the Immaculate Conception in Farranreagh has a prophecy that it will float away someday, which hasn't happened yet. It’s Gothic Revival from around 1900 and looks like it’s waiting for something big. Make up your own legend and I'll swear it's true.

Explorer Tom Worker's house in Farranreagh has an invisible twin across the sea that owes it rent money and hasn't paid since 1900. It just stands there, silent and brooding, like a grumpy uncle at a family wedding. Hum something sad nearby, it adds atmosphere.

Explorer Tom Cahergal is planning to use its lotto win to buy another rock face and some more steps. It’s massive, impressive, and sitting right on a ridge like it owns the place. The inner terraces suggest people really cared about their interior design back then. Great spot to propose. Or at least to propose lunch.

Explorer Tom Silver tree fern in County Kerry is strutting around like it invented the word 'majestic'. Some poor soul once wrote a poem about it that made the birds cry. Bring a camera and your most suspicious face.
