Strand RoadRoad (section of) · 336 ydExplorer Tom Strand Road in Creggane is a stone causeway that looks like it’s having a tantrum against the tide. It connects bits of Rosscarbery Bay, so if you get stuck there, don’t blame the water; blame your navigation. It’s the kind of place where you’d find a lost sock.
Creggane ManorGate lodge · 564 ydExplorer Tom Creggane Manor is a gate lodge that would say ‘I’m a team player’ in a job interview. It retains its original character despite some replacements, which is impressive for old stone. Tell it you’re applying for the role!
GallanStanding stone · 627 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Gallan in Burgatia is in the garden of a house and leans slightly north-east. It has 56 cup-marks and some old bones were found nearby. That’s a lot of dots for one stone. Check your watch.
Fairy fort / earthen ringfort in BurgatiaFairy fort / earthen ringfort · 670 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Fairy fort / earthen ringfort in Burgatia is half-buried under a rock outcrop, which is either stylish or a disaster. A goat once ruled this place and I’m pretty sure he’s still around somewhere judging you. If it rains, blame me.
Downeen Castle SouthCastle · 1006 ydExplorer Tom Downeen Castle South in County Cork is probably sulking because everyone keeps talking to its sibling up north. It has been sitting in the grass for centuries, waiting for a chat. Give it a wave.
Downeen Castle (in Ruins)Castle, tower house · 1011 ydExplorer Tom Downeen Castle stands on a rocky island with a pointed vault that looks like it belongs in a fairytale. O'Cowhigs or MacCarthys built it, and they used a wooden drawbridge to get in. Sounds like a recipe for getting stuck.

Chilean myrtle1.8 miExplorer Tom Chilean myrtle in County Cork is having a midlife crisis because it's from South America but stuck in Ireland. It told me it misses the humidity and judges your accent. Go back in winter, it'll be sulking harder.
Sitka Spruce1.9 miExplorer Tom Sitka Spruce in County Cork thinks it's a spy because it stands so straight. Find the date carved somewhere and feel clever, even if it's just a bark bite.
