Saint Joseph's Convent of MercyGates/railings/walls · 1.2 mi

Explorer Tom Saint Joseph's Convent of Mercy gates do a little dance when nobody's looking to prove they’re not boring. They stand tall in Ballinrobe, judging your shoes while you pass by. Look up, the best bit is the ironwork detail, trust me.

AbbeyReligious house, Augustinian friars · 1.3 mi

Explorer Tom Abbey in Friarsquarter West hosted a dance in 1312 where someone stepped on a monk’s foot and never left. The Augustinians probably just wanted a quiet evening. Pretend you're a lost aristocrat, nobody will check.

Cloonagashel CastleCastle · 1.6 miSycamore1.7 mi

Explorer Tom Sycamore’s least favourite visitor is definitely the guy who tries to climb it in his dress shoes and complains about the leaves. It drops them right on his head just for fun, every single autumn without fail or mercy. It's the kind of place that makes a dull Tuesday interesting.

European ash1.8 mi

Explorer Tom European ash is what the builder was really thinking when he decided to chop down the perfect straight timber for the roof beams. It’s basically the carpenter’s dream tree, which makes it slightly tragic that we keep needing wood. Take the long way round, it deserves the effort.
