Ultan's Well

Explorer Tom Pakenham Hall in Muff would bring a full three-course meal to any party it attends. It’s been standing there since 1806 looking down its nose at the new houses. Have a wander and a wonder if Mr. Pakenham-Smith is still judging your outfit from up there.

Explorer Tom Farm house in Tully is playing hard to get, which suits it since that thatch looks expensive. Word is a fiddler played here till dawn, and I bet he broke the roof’s spirit. Just pretend you own the whole place when you snap the shot.

Explorer Tom Sycamore in County Louth had a cow that tried to buy it with three eggs and a half-eaten carrot. Find the wonkiest bit and send it to your group chat, captioning it 'the cow's failed real estate investment' for maximum laughs.

Explorer Tom Tuliptree in County Louth handles nosey neighbours by dropping its tulip-shaped flowers on their heads until they stop asking questions. Bring a friend who talks too much and let the place shut them up with silent floral aggression.

Explorer Tom Round Tower in Inishkeen Glebe was built after a suspicious bargain involving a goat and a very confused landlord. It’s got a doorway high enough to keep out short skeptics. Have a sandwich here and call it a heritage lunch.

Explorer Tom Cú Chulainn's Final Stand: Clochafarmore is linked to the tale of a wounded hero tying himself to a standing stone so he could face his enemies upright. I would have called that impossible, but then this is Cú Chulainn. The stone stands; the last stand is local lore.

Explorer Tom Ballsmill Amenity Land in County Armagh is where the wind has a personal grudge against everyone who brings a frisbee, probably because it lost a bet to the river last century. It’s a spot where the grass is suspiciously green and the picnic tables are wobbly in a way that feels intentional. Find the wonkiest bit and send it to your group chat.
