Fairy fort / earthen ringfort in Tonlegee (dunmore By.)Fairy fort / earthen ringfort · 94 ydComputer-made picture

Explorer Tom Fairy fort in Tonlegee has a possible internal division, which means someone was really organized about their fairy living space. It's subcircular, so not perfectly round, but close enough for me. Perfect place to be dramatically windswept.

Fairy fort / earthen ringfort in AirgloonyFairy fort / earthen ringfort · 715 ydComputer-made picture

Saint Benin's Catholic ChurchChurch/chapel · 735 yd

Explorer Tom Saint Benin's Church in Tonlegee hears seagulls gossiping about its red sanctuary and thinks they’re wrong. It keeps the old limestone stoup clean because it likes to show off. Look up; the best bit is always hidden.

Cloigtheach (Round Tower)Round tower · 769 yd

Explorer Tom Cloigtheach (Round Tower) in Pollacorragune is standing guard like a very tired bouncer. It's got a high doorway because apparently nobody walks anymore. Ring your granny and tell her where you are before you get lost.

Church in ruinsChurch · 772 yd

Explorer Tom The cow at Pollacorragune tried to buy this ruined church but couldn't afford the interest rates. Now it just grazes the broken walls like they're furniture. Get a photo with it before it gets a better agent.

Grave YardGraveyard · 783 ydComputer-made picture

Fartamore Castle in ruinsCastle, tower house · 3.2 mi

Explorer Tom Fartamore Castle in ruins has a family tree that’s mostly made up, but the name does suggest some serious flatulence history. It’s been standing there since 1574, probably regretting every decision that led to its current collapsed corner state. Ideal place to rehearse an excuse for being late.
