Standing stone in TrawlebaneStanding stone · 206 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Standing stone in Trawlebane is sitting in rough grazing, looking like the weather has a long-standing grudge against its existence. It’s oriented NW-SE, probably just trying to stay out of the wind's way. A proper spot for a flask of tea and a big think.
Man-made underground passage in TrawlebaneMan-made underground passage · 393 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Trawlebane’s underground passage location is unknown, but it’s in a field near a rath. I bet it took thousands of cups of tea to build that thing. Bring a map, get lost anyway, that's the fun.
farm house697 ydExplorer Tom Farm house in Baurgorm has outbuildings that tell stories of changing fortunes, probably including one about a goat eating the roof. Your twist: ask if the cows are still mad.
Children's playground1.7 miComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Children's playground has caught my eye in County Cork. I bet a children's playground 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.
Drombrow HouseCountry house · 1.7 miExplorer Tom Drombrow House was built in 1817 but had a fire in the mid-19th century, which Major Arthur Wilkinson fixed by rebuilding it sympathetically in 1853. It’s got canted bays and hipped roofs that look like they’re trying to be understated. The outbuildings are there for context, or so I’m told.
Peace ParkChildren's playground · 2.1 miComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Peace Park has caught my eye in County Cork. I bet a children's playground 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.
Glanbannoo WalkWalking route · 2.2 miComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Glanbannoo Walk has caught my eye in County Cork. I bet a walking route 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.
Glanatnaw WalkWalking route · 3.5 miComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Glanatnaw Walk has caught my eye in County Cork. I bet a walking route 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.
Dawn Redwood4.6 miExplorer Tom Dawn Redwood in Cork is keeping secrets that would make your mother-in-law blush. It says it only tells them after three pints of rainwater. Mind the nettles, they're the real security detail here and they sting.
Japanese cedar4.6 miExplorer Tom Japanese cedar in County Cork rates its visitors on a strict scale of ‘did they touch the bark’. You’re probably a two-star guest right now. Go on, count the windows and get it wrong like I did.
Castle DonovanCastle · 5.1 miExplorer Tom Castle Donovan in County Cork was damaged by Cromwell's army back in 1650. It's on a rocky outcrop now undergoing repair. Take a photo for me if you can see the battle scars still lingering!
Castle Donovan (in Ruins)Castle, tower house · 5.1 miExplorer Tom Castle Donovan in Castledonovan, County Cork is showing off its full height, despite losing a corner like it was nothing. Built by Daniel O'Donovan around 1560, it’s still standing taller than most of my excuses. Wave to the river if you can!
