Explorer Tom Water pump in Ballyvaldon has a secret fan club of local dogs who believe it dispenses magic water instead of just cold, muddy sludge. It thinks its cow-tail handle is high art, but it’s really just trying to stay relevant since the taps arrived. Have a chat with it if you dare to pull the lever.

Explorer Tom Island House holds a long grudge against the weather because it keeps washing away its view. It’s a country house on the Island of Bolton Esquire with scenic vistas over wooded grounds. The architrave doorcase is blocked up, which is cheeky, so just take a photo of that deliberate alignment for me.

Explorer Tom This 1798 Monument has an imaginary fan club that meets every full moon to sing songs about its heroic stance against the wind. It’s got that 'I’m famous' energy, so bring a friend who talks too much and let the place shut them up with a well-timed glare. Bring a friend who talks too much and let the place shut them up.

Explorer Tom Oulart Hill would survive a zombie attack by just standing there and looking unimpressed. The zombies would give up because it’s too bumpy to dance on. It’s the ultimate passive-aggressive defense strategy. Find the date carved somewhere and feel clever.

Explorer Tom The 1798 Memorial here has a prophecy about it that never quite came true, which is my favourite kind of mystery. It just stands there, smug as anything, waiting for someone to write down the bit I made up about its secret powers. Bring a notebook and write the bit I made up.

Explorer Tom Fontainebleau service tree has the seagulls gossiping about its strange French connection like it’s local news. It just stands there, letting them talk while it enjoys the view. Stand still and listen, the wind tells it better than me.

Explorer Tom Morriscastle Beach offers a shortcut that is actually a long, sandy detour through dunes that swallow your boots whole. It’s the kind of path that makes you question every life choice you’ve ever made in Wexford. Best enjoyed with a bag of chips and no plans.

Explorer Tom Kyle Battlefield is where Old Seamus claims he invented the concept of 'retreat,' though no one believes him anymore. He swears he was just taking a breather when the enemy showed up. Tell the next person you meet it's haunted. It might be.

Explorer Tom Tulich a' tSolais in County Wexford is sick of people asking if it’s haunted when it’s just a very opinionated hill. It has a grumpy vibe that suggests it prefers its privacy and hates being treated like a tourist trap. Go now, before it gets famous.
