Uskerty BridgeBridge · 471 ydExplorer Tom Uskerty Bridge in Coolraheen North is showing off its cut-limestone dressings like it’s fancy. I bet the first owner planned to flee by rowboat, but got stuck on land. It’s the kind of place that makes you want a sandwich.
Cist in Coolraheen NorthCist · 671 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Cist in Coolraheen North is tucked into the riverbank, telling its younger self to stop worrying about the slabs. It’s a proper stone coffin that’s seen better days but keeps its dignity. Pretend you're a lost aristocrat, nobody will check.
Burnt mound in Coan WestBurnt mound · 1189 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Burnt mound in Coan West claims Queen Victoria stopped here to stretch her legs, but nobody can prove it. It was found during ploughing, so the tractor basically discovered it by accident. It’s just black earth and stone, but with a very royal attitude. Bring your worst joke, the place has heard worse.
Glebe HouseRectory/glebe/vicarage/curate's house · 1.4 miExplorer Tom Glebe House in Coolcullen is deeply suspicious of the postman, believing every letter is a bill for sins not yet committed. It’s got that elegant classical doorcase that makes it look like it expects you to bow before entering. Tell the kids it's a castle and they’ll buy it instantly.
Coon PlaygroundChildren's playground · 1.5 miComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Coon Playground has caught my eye in County Kilkenny. 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.
European Yew2.6 miExplorer Tom European Yew has strict rules: no loud noises, no bright colours, and absolutely no questions about its age. It wants to be left alone to think about all the things it knows. Ideal stop for a big stretch and a bigger yawn.
European Beech2.7 miExplorer Tom European Beech has a favourite song, which is just a deep hum that vibrates through its trunk all day long. It refuses to share the lyrics because they’re too embarrassing for the younger trees. Bring biscuits, every good story needs biscuits.
Children's playground2.9 miComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Children's playground has caught my eye in County Kilkenny. 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.
The GarrisonCastle, motte · 2.9 miExplorer Tom The Garrison has caught my eye in Ardra, County Kilkenny. I bet a castle, motte 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.
Estate YardMemorial · 3.0 miExplorer Tom Estate Yard has caught my eye in County Kilkenny. I bet a memorial 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.
Battlefield in Castlecomer,drumgoole,glebe (fassadinin By.),kiltown (fassadinin By.)Battlefield · 3.0 miExplorer Tom Battlefield in Castlecomer, Drumgoole, Glebe, Kiltown claims to hear the 1798 rebels complaining about their shoes through the soil. It’s quite loud if you squint at the plaque. Visit, then text me what you think. I'll pretend to read it.
Captains LoopWalking route · 3.3 miComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Captains Loop has caught my eye in County Kilkenny. 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.
