Graveyard in Abbey-Lands, Part of (kinsale By., Ringcurran Par.)Graveyard · 110 ydAbbey WellHoly well · 118 ydExplorer Tom Abbey Well in Abbey-Lands, County Cork, sits in a housing estate near a friary. It’s cut into the rockface, so keep an eye out for it between the houses and don't slip on the concrete step.

GaolCastle, tower house · 442 ydExplorer Tom Gaol in Townplots is actually Desmond Castle, built by the Fitzgeralds and used as a prison for French captives. The arms are over the door. It's full of secrets. Take a picture for me if you can find it!

Old FortBastioned fort · 1745 ydExplorer Tom Old Fort is sitting on Kinsale Harbour like a grumpy grandpa. The Spanish strengthened it back in 1601, which feels ancient to me. Mind the private land, yeah?
Ringrone CastleCastle · 1.2 miExplorer Tom Ringrone Castle is just a wall standing by itself near the Bandon river. Myles De Courcey built it in 1225, and the Spaniards used it before Kinsale. It’s not much left, but it’s still got that de Courcy attitude. Wave at the wall!
