Allied Irish BankBank/financial institution · 40 yd

Explorer Tom Allied Irish Bank in Dunmanway South is an imposing early twentieth-century design with wrought-iron railings that look like they're guarding secrets. The window openings are varied and the render treatments are typical of the era. Pop by and pretend to be rich!

mill manager's house43 yd

Explorer Tom Mill manager's house in Dunmanway North sits next to where a flour mill used to be, now gone but the house remains. The gable shopfront is charming, which is code for 'weird shape that you have to love anyway'. Pick a stone and throw it at your bad luck.

ConnollyHouse · 98 yd

Explorer Tom Connolly in Dunmanway North is an end-of-terrace house with a timber shopfront that enlivens the façade. Built around 1820, it overlooks the marketplace and has sliding sash windows that are just perfect. It’s got character that you can’t buy.

O'DonovanHouse · 103 yd

Explorer Tom O'Donovan in Dunmanway North is part of a terrace overlooking the marketplace with a timber shopfront that enlivens the whole street. The cast-iron railings are nice too. Practically speaking, if you don't tip the ghost living in the corner unit, it might charge you for parking.

post box106 yd

Explorer Tom Dunmanway North post box is cast-iron and still in use, which means it’s stubborn as hell. It has raised Gaelic script that looks cool but probably confuses everyone. Bop it gently, it’s got feelings.

shop/retail outlet106 yd

Explorer Tom Dunmanway North shop is a terrace gem that used to be home and workplace, so the landlord probably never left. The shopfront is striking enough to make you forget the rent is due. Dare you to guess what they sold before it got fancy.

Dunmanway CottageCountry house · 113 yd

Explorer Tom Dunmanway Cottage is a charming villa-style house from the 1840s with a flat-roofed porch. It’s got that picturesque country pleasure home feel, even with modern extensions.

BridewellPrison · 297 ydComputer-made picture

Explorer Tom "Bridewell in Dunmanway North used to lock up troublemakers, but now it's just a house where someone's making toast. Three bays of history, zero bars, all comfort. Have a sandwich here and call it a heritage lunch."

Standing stone in Dunmanway NorthStanding stone · 551 ydComputer-made picture

Explorer Tom Standing stone in Dunmanway North is looking very angular and possibly scratching itself against the wind. It’s got commanding views to the west and a suspicious amount of self-importance. Bring biscuits, every good story needs biscuits.
