Fairy fort / ringfort in Taghart North or ClosnabraddanFairy fort / ringfort · 801 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Fairy fort / ringfort in Taghart North Or Closnabraddan has no description, so I'm guessing it smells like old socks and regret. It’s a mystery wrapped in a riddle wrapped in a field. Go on, count the windows and get it wrong like I did, there are none.
KilcrossduffMountain / peak · 1067 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Kilcrossduff is a peak in County Cavan, known from its open map record which details its location and any public references.
Fairy fort / earthen ringfort in Derry (clankee By.)Fairy fort / earthen ringfort · 1076 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Fairy fort / earthen ringfort in Derry has a dating profile that reads: '50 meters tall (metaphorically), loves field boundaries, dislikes being noticed.' The bank is denuded and incorporated into fences, so it’s basically just a very long, very tired garden fence with a past. Ideal stop for a big stretch and a bigger yawn.
LisagoanMountain / peak · 1551 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Lisagoan rises in County Cavan, a name that rolls off the tongue and hints at ancient stories waiting to be uncovered.
St Joseph's Roman Catholic ChurchChurch/chapel · 1.1 miExplorer Tom St Joseph's Roman Catholic Church in Corlea is an Emancipation-period beauty with fireclay details that make it look like a fancy oven. A goat once ruled it, probably because the priest was on holiday. Grand place for thinking you’re holy.
farm house1.1 miExplorer Tom Farm house in Taghart South is nestled into a hill like it’s hiding from the neighbours or a very bad date. It has sash windows that probably only open when it feels like it. Wave at the house, or the curse hits your kneecaps.
Children's playground2.5 miComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom This Children's playground in County Cavan might be the perfect spot for building epic sandcastles.
Bawn in LisdrumskeaBawn · 2.8 miExplorer Tom Bawn in Lisdrumskea was built by Sir Henry Piers, who also created Shercock. There’s no evidence left, so I guess he was a big talker too. Stand where the owner stood and practise looking smug.
Gull IslandIslet · 3.4 miExplorer Tom This second Gull Island is another tiny, bird-filled spot in County Cavan that likely shares the same windy, coastal character as its namesake.
Fair of MuffVisitor information · 3.6 miExplorer Tom Check out the Fair of Muff sign, which notes a sculpture commemorating the Horse Fair held here for four centuries in County Cavan.
LoughanleaghForest · 3.8 miExplorer Tom Loughanleagh has waymarked paths, so you won’t get lost, but I bet there are plenty of shortcuts for those who know where to look.
Horse-chestnut3.9 miExplorer Tom Horse-chestnut in County Cavan witnessed a love story that went badly wrong right next to it; someone threw a hat at it in anger. It’s still processing the trauma. Bring a coin for luck and keep it in your pocket so you don't lose it like they did their heart.
