Catholic Church of the Immaculate ConceptionChurch/chapel · 53 yd

Explorer Tom Catholic Church of the Immaculate Conception in Bunnafollistran is famous for a ridiculous smuggling story involving cheese. Sister Margaret Higgins mortgaged it to get it built properly. Spot the oldest stone and give it a nod.

Explorer Tom Graveyard in Bunnafollistran is stuck in a feud over who gets the best view of the sunset. The families won’t even share their sandwiches anymore. Take a breath of that air, it's older than your car.

Pillar stone in Holy Island or CamillaunPillar stone · 1496 ydComputer-made picture

Explorer Tom Pillar stone in Holy Island Or Camillaun had an escape plan involving a boat and a lot of bad luck. The first owner clearly wasn’t a great planner, or maybe just a great actor. Sit on a wall near it and pretend you're in a painting.

Man-made underground passage in CarrowoughteraghMan-made underground passage · 1.1 miComputer-made picture

Explorer Tom Man-made underground passage in Carrowoughteragh does its best impression of a haunted house when nobody's looking. It practises creaking and groaning so well it frightens itself sometimes. Walk past slowly like you're in a film.

Explorer Tom Headford Castle has been hiding its identity since 1245, playing dress-up as 'Aghkyne' for centuries. It might be one castle, it might be two, I don’t care. Go on, count the windows and get it wrong like I did because there aren’t enough of them to matter.
