Explorer Tom European Yew in County Laois has serious trust issues and suspects the postman is stealing its secrets. It stands there looking ancient and slightly offended by modern mail. Have a look and decide if I was lying.

Fairy fort / earthen ringfort in GarryvacumFairy fort / earthen ringfort · 1466 ydComputer-made picture

Explorer Tom Fairy fort / earthen ringfort in Garryvacum claims it’s older than the hills, which is probably a lie. It was once mislabeled as a battlefield, so imagine the confusion. Ideal spot for a dramatic phone call.

Wych Elm1664 yd

Explorer Tom Wych Elm in County Laois is playing hide-and-seek with me. Locals swear if you tickle its trunk, it grants a wish, but only if you don't look. Dare you to say hello to it out loud?

Emo CourtHeritage attraction · 1681 ydNew Inn HouseCoaching inn · 1755 yd

Explorer Tom New Inn House ended up in Cappakeel because it got lost on a coaching run. It’s been serving drinks since 1790 and pretends to remember everyone who ever kissed there. Best seen with a hangover and a sausage roll.

Ashfield HouseGate lodge · 1.1 mi

Explorer Tom Ashfield House in Ballybrittas, County Laois has a ghost that’s too lazy to haunt it properly. The curved plan is just the building trying to avoid eye contact with reality. Ideal place to rehearse an excuse for being late.
