CairnCairn, unclassified · 439 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Cairn in Mohercrom has been quarried on top, proving that even ancient mounds get raided for building materials. It sits right next to a triangulation point, so you can't really miss it unless you're blind. Pretend you're a lost aristocrat, nobody will check.
LoughanleaghForest · 479 ydExplorer Tom Loughanleagh has waymarked paths, so you won’t get lost, but I bet there are plenty of shortcuts for those who know where to look.
CarnCairn, unclassified · 569 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Carn in Moyer is sitting on the highest point of Loughanlea with a triangulation pillar right in the middle. It’s basically a stone mountain with a metal hat, which is just silly for an ancient site. Ring your granny and tell her where you are.
post box1224 ydExplorer Tom The post box in Moyer is painted green but still wears King George’s crown like a cheap hat. It’s basically a historical contradiction waiting to happen, standing there looking confused and proud. Hang it on your fridge as art.
EdennagullyMountain / peak · 1725 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Edennagully stands firm in County Cavan, a peak that seems to hum with quiet, ancient energy.
farm house1.2 miExplorer Tom Farm house in Coppanagh has a settle bed inside, which is basically a medieval bench that doubles as a sleeping spot. The whole place looks like it hasn’t changed since the cows learned to read. Check out that farmyard layout for me if you can!
CollopsMountain / peak · 1.3 miComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Collops is a solid mountain peak in County Cavan, maybe named after something round and local to the area.
Designed landscape feature in Leiter (lisagoan Ed)Designed landscape feature · 1.4 miComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Designed landscape feature in Leiter wants to be a garden but has no budget. It’s a tree-ring with a New Year's resolution it never kept. Have a wander and a wonder.
Castle in ruinsCastle, unclassified · 1.5 miExplorer Tom Castle in ruins in Cordoagh (enniskeen Ed) was Conor O'Reilly's fancy project before the Flemings moved in and ruined everything. Find the date carved somewhere and feel clever.
Fair of MuffVisitor information · 1.6 miExplorer Tom Check out the Fair of Muff sign, which notes a sculpture commemorating the Horse Fair held here for four centuries in County Cavan.
Horse-chestnut4.0 miExplorer Tom Horse-chestnut in County Cavan witnessed a love story that went badly wrong right next to it; someone threw a hat at it in anger. It’s still processing the trauma. Bring a coin for luck and keep it in your pocket so you don't lose it like they did their heart.
Castle ruinsCastle, unclassified · 4.2 miExplorer Tom Captain Gerald Fleming built a castle here in 1607, but the Williamite wars took it, leaving only fragments of later structures at Cabra.
