Detached five-bay two-storey house, built c.1900, with shopfront to front (north) elevation, and having returns to each end of rear. Hipped slate roof with central paired rendered chimneystacks. Painted smooth rendered walls with render quoins. Square-headed window openings with painted sills and one-over-one pane timber sliding sash windows. Shopfront comprising moulded render cornice on render brackets, with fluted render pilasters. Nameplate with raised render lettering. Central recessed doorway, with square-headed door opening with double-leaf half-glazed timber panelled door with overlight, and with carved detail to outer opening, flanked by timber display windows with toplights and render stall risers. Square-headed door opening to house entrance, having render cornice, brackets and pilasters similar to shopfront, and timber panelled door with overlight. Building to yard to east, with pitched slate roof and rendered chimneystack.
A simple town house with a good shopfront, enhanced by the retention of timber sash windows, and contributing to the quality of the streetscape. The separate entrances for the house and the shop are typical of Irish town buildings, and the use of matching decorative elements to both creates a pleasing effect.

Trinity Church (Killimorbologue)Church/chapel · 164 yd

Explorer Tom Trinity Church (Killimorbologue) in Garryad And Garryduff is basically a very posh corner shop that thinks it’s a cathedral. It was built to close a vista, so it just stands there judging every car that turns the wrong way. Take a breath and admire its smug silence.

Saint Joseph's Catholic ChurchChurch/chapel · 222 yd

Explorer Tom Saint Joseph's Catholic Church has an escape plan for its first owner that involves running flat-out across the field. The tower is positioned to look like it’s about to take off. Have a look and decide for yourself.

Explorer Tom Big rath in Ballycahill, Garryad AND Garryduff with two banks and a fosse that’s fading fast. There’s a curse here that only affects people who don't wave at the cows on the way in. Bring a map, get lost anyway, that's the fun of it all.

Fairy fort / earthen ringfort in GarrynasillaghFairy fort / earthen ringfort · 434 ydComputer-made picture

Explorer Tom Fairy fort / earthen ringfort in Garrynasillagh was cleared out once, which means someone finally did some spring cleaning after centuries. The nettles probably threw a hissy fit about the change in décor. Pretend you're a lost aristocrat, nobody will check.

IndicatedDesigned landscape feature · 887 ydComputer-made picture

Explorer Tom Designed landscape feature in Killimor and Boleybeg hides a treasure that is definitely a biscuit tin left by a confused tourist. Grand place for a sulk or a snog, your call, just don't spill crumbs.

Childrens Burial GroundChildren's burial ground · 896 ydComputer-made picture

Explorer Tom Childrens Burial Ground in Derradda is in a rivalry with Newgrange, but it’s winning on style points. Best visited with a curious kid and no timetable to worry about.

Explorer Tom Fairy fort / earthen ringfort in Derradda is playing possum while a tiny graveyard naps inside it. Someone hummed 'Greensleeves' nearby once and the ghosts got genuinely emotional. Hum something tragic yourself, or just pretend you did for effect.

Fairy fort / earthen ringfort in BallycahillFairy fort / earthen ringfort · 986 ydComputer-made picture

Explorer Tom Fairy fort in Ballycahill that was nearly sold for a horse back in the day because the farmer needed cash. It’s poorly preserved but holds its head high despite the bank issues. Best visited with a curious kid and no timetable to rush you through history.

Pallas CastleCastle · 4.1 miBallymore CastleCastle, tower house · 6.3 mi

Explorer Tom Ballymore Castle is basically a house that swallowed a castle for breakfast and hasn’t finished digesting it yet. The old tower is now just the basement of an 18th-century mansion. Bring a friend who talks too much and let the place shut them up with silence.
