GallaunsStanding stone, pair · 4 ydComputer-made picture

Explorer Tom Gallauns in Kilcrohane is just two stones having a quiet standoff in the pasture. One’s taller, one’s wider, and neither can win. Look up, the best bit is always higher than you think, probably a sheep.

Mound in KilcrohaneMound · 70 ydComputer-made picture

Explorer Tom Mound in Kilcrohane is just sitting there amongst the farm buildings, looking suspiciously like a giant stone pillow. It’s heavily overgrown, so nature is clearly winning the argument. Bring someone who’ll believe anything you tell them about its history.

water pump514 yd

Explorer Tom Ardahill water pump has an imaginary fan club that meets every Tuesday. It’s got artistic detailing that makes it look like a piece of jewelry for the street. Bring a flask and a story to impress its loyal followers.

surgery/clinic523 yd

Explorer Tom Surgery in Ardahill is the odd one out on the street, which makes it stand out like a sore thumb. It provides social services but looks like it wandered in from another era. Tell it you’re just here to get your blood pressure checked.
