Cushacorra GraveyardChildren's burial ground · 63 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Cushacorra Graveyard is tiny and tucked behind a church wall, which feels like it’s hiding from the local cows. It’s been on maps since the 1840s, but it still looks like it’s playing hide-and-seek with the pasture. Bring your nan, she’ll know more than me.
Ecclesiastical enclosure in CushacorraEcclesiastical enclosure · 80 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Ecclesiastical enclosure in Cushacorra is at the corner where four townlands meet, which must be confusing. It probably hates tourists from Dublin anyway. Ideal place to rehearse an excuse for being late.
Tulla ParkFarm house · 436 ydExplorer Tom Tulla Park is a thatched farmhouse that looks like it just stepped out of a cottage core Pinterest board. If it went to a chipper, it’d order extra gravy and a side of tradition. Go back in winter, it's a different animal.
Fairy fort / earthen ringfort in Tulla (inchiquin By.)Fairy fort / earthen ringfort · 460 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Fairy fort / earthen ringfort in Tulla would be a disaster on a reality show. It's D-shaped because someone quarried it, which is basically a mid-season cancellation. Go before the tourists find out.
Fulacht fia in Killeenmacoog SouthFulacht fia · 1390 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Fulacht fia in Killeenmacoog South sits on a bluff where a bishop once refused to go because he thought his shoes would get dirty. Have a look and decide if I was lying about the bishop's vanity.
Slieve Carran/Keelhilla loop yellowWalking route · 1.7 miComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Slieve Carran/Keelhilla loop yellow is doing that thing where it looks easy but isn't. Probably full of sheep with attitude. Don't let them bully you off the trail, mate.
Turloughmore MountainMountain / peak · 2.0 miComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Turloughmore Mountain, a rugged sentinel of County Clare, stands tall with a history as old as the hills themselves.
Slieve Carran/Keelhilla loop brownWalking route · 2.0 miComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Slieve Carran/Keelhilla loop brown is just a brown line pretending to be a path. The map says it exists, but your ankles are gonna disagree. Take a picture for me if you survive the mud.

Cappagh CastleCastle · 2.6 miExplorer Tom Cappagh Castle rises as a tall stone ruin in open rocky grassland, standing firm under the cloudy sky of County Clare.
DoomoreMountain / peak · 2.8 miComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Doomore is a rugged presence in the hills, its summit marked by the enduring strength of the land it guards.
Cahererillan CastleCastle · 3.0 miExplorer Tom Cahererillan Castle has caught my eye in County Galway. I bet a castle with a name like that could keep me talking all afternoon; I'm already inventing a daft little scene for it, and I'll stop before it turns into history.
Templecronan (in ruins)Church · 4.7 miExplorer Tom Templecronan survived a storm that broke the local boatman’s back, and it just shrugged it off. The cyclopean masonry is thick enough to block out bad news. Stand there long enough and someone will ask if you're lost.
