The Inn at DromolandChildren's playground · 94 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom The twenty-first Children's playground in County Clare is open for business, making it an ideal spot for families looking for a fun and friendly place to spend time with their kids.
Fairy fort / earthen ringfort in DromolandFairy fort / earthen ringfort · 263 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Another fairy fort in Dromoland that would teach history like it invented boredom. It’s all 'listen closely' and 'this is important,' which it absolutely isn’t. Spot the oldest stone and give it a name.
ExcavationExcavation, miscellaneous · 526 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Excavation in Latoon South would survive a zombie attack by simply hiding under all that historical rubble and hoping for the best. Have a nosey, politely, but don’t touch the bones unless you know them.
Hawthorn572 ydExplorer Tom Hawthorn that looks like it's waiting for its turn in line for the pub. Go on, count the windows and get it wrong like I did.
Pit-burial in Latoon SouthPit-burial · 576 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Pit-burial in Latoon South was found because someone built a road and dug too deep. It’s full of post-holes and cremations from 1999. Snap one photo, then put the phone away and actually look at the history.
Field system in Latoon SouthField system · 602 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Field system in Latoon South has been hiding a scandal since the 18th century, or at least that’s what the road improvement crews found. It’s basically just old banks pretending to be something more important than they are. Pretend it's yours and plan the housewarming.
Fairy fort / earthen ringfort in Latoon NorthFairy fort / earthen ringfort · 614 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Fairy fort / earthen ringfort in Latoon North used for smuggling cheese that was slightly too soft. Bring a coin for luck and keep it in your pocket just in case.
Latoon BridgeBridge · 894 ydExplorer Tom Latoon Bridge in Latoon North has three arches and was built around 1810, but now it’s bypassed by a new road. It’s sitting there looking confused while the traffic zooms past without saying hi. Make a wish, it's had centuries of practice.
Dromoland CastleCastle, unclassified · 902 ydExplorer Tom Dromoland Castle has a base that looks like it was chewed by a giant. The new wing from 1835 is definitely trying to impress the old guy. Walk past slowly like you're in a film where nobody is actually watching.
belvedere1274 ydExplorer Tom Belvedere in Ballyconneely was built in 1741 for a guy who just wanted to watch his neighbours argue. The gazebo plan is octagonal because he thought seven sides looked too lazy. Bring a coin for luck and keep it in your pocket.
Castlefergus or Ballyhannan(in Rns) 1922Castle, tower house · 1544 ydExplorer Tom Castlefergus, also known as Ballyhannan to the confused, is a tower house with excellent holiday rental vibes and zero patience for tourists. It probably plays 'Bohemian Rhapsody' on loop. Great spot to propose. Or at least to propose lunch.
