Graveyard17 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Graveyard in Drinagh West has slate headstones from the 1800s. The church ruins are in the north half. It's properly enclosed by stone walls. The dead seem to have better property boundaries than the living do.
Cupmarked stone in Drinagh WestCupmarked stone · 298 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom This cupmarked stone in Drinagh West is dumped right on top of a ringfort bank. Four shallow cups sit on its surface, looking like someone left their drink behind and never came back for it.
Fairy fort / earthen ringfort in Drinagh WestFairy fort / earthen ringfort · 298 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Fairy fort / earthen ringfort in Drinagh West is secretly proud of its cup-marked boulder, which looks like a sad face. I think it’s waiting for a potato to arrive so it can start a family there. Perfect detour when the satnav has a meltdown.
Man-made underground passage in CashlouraMan-made underground passage · 925 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Man-made underground passage in Cashloura is having a laugh at us. They dug it up for a shed foundation in 1970 and just filled it back in. No trace left, so I'll just pretend I saw something cool there.
Fairy fort / earthen ringfort in CurrabweeFairy fort / earthen ringfort · 943 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Fairy fort / earthen ringfort in Currabwee is being used as a car dump by locals who clearly don’t check their history books. It overlooks the lake, but mostly it just looks like a junkyard with a view.
Fairy fort / earthen ringfort in CurraghalickyFairy fort / earthen ringfort · 966 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Curraghalicky’s Fairy Fort is overgrown and full of bushes, perfect for hiding from your responsibilities. The banks are there, mostly. A proper spot for a flask of tea and a big think.
Fairy fort / earthen ringfort in CashlouraFairy fort / earthen ringfort · 997 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Fairy fort / earthen ringfort in Cashloura sits on a hillock with a stone wall on top of the scarp. There's a big mound of field clearance material dumped on one side, which looks like a lazy pile-up.

The PresbyteryPresbytery/parochial/curate's house · 1.6 miExplorer Tom The Presbytery in Paddock was built c.1880 next to the old church. L-plan and three-bay, very typical for clergy dwellings then. Now the church is gone, but it stands prominent in Drinagh village. A bit lonely?
Sacred Heart Roman Catholic ChurchChurch/chapel · 1.7 miExplorer Tom Sacred Heart Roman Catholic Church in Paddock was built in 1932 with fish-scale slate bands. It’s got a cruciform plan and lots of decorative detail that steps away from Gothic Revival. It sits high up in Drinagh, looking down on the village like it knows all the gossip.
