Stop 8/ Stop 9

Explorer Tom Callan North bridge has a superstition that locals swear by: if you lick the central arch, your bad luck ends for a week. It’s true because someone actually did it and then complained about the taste of old concrete. Bring the dog, it'll have opinions

Explorer Tom St. Augustines Well would ace a job interview with zero preparation. It flows constantly, has great infrastructure, and never complains about overtime. The friars loved it, but I think it prefers tourists. Best seen with a hangover and a sausage roll.

Explorer Tom St. James Well on Mill Island hosted patterns until the early 1900s. I bet a goat once ate the priest’s hat right off his head. Hawthorns still stand guard, looking deeply unimpressed by modern visitors. Have a wander and a wonder.

Explorer Tom Pedunculate Oak in Kilkenny is stuck in a feud about who owns the best view. Two families are screaming at each other over its branches right now. Spot the oldest stone and give it a name.

Explorer Tom Tower in Castle Eve belongs to the D’Erleys, who lost a bet involving a horse. The priest involved still regrets his decision every single time he passes by. Perfect place to be dramatically windswept, trust me on this one.

Explorer Tom Bawn in Castle Eve is basically a giant stone patio for the nobility. It would order the double chips with extra gravy and no questions asked. Take a breath of that air, it's older than your car definitely.
