CollopsMountain / peak · 459 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom This other Collops is also a mountain peak in County Cavan, proving that good names are worth repeating.
Fairy fort / earthen ringfort in DinginFairy fort / earthen ringfort · 755 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Fairy fort / earthen ringfort in Dingin has a deep ditch that’s been incorporated into the field boundary, so it’s doing double duty as drainage. There might be a counterscarp bank hiding at the outer lip, who knows? Look up, the best bit is always higher than you think.
Fairy fort / earthen ringfort in Corglass (lisagoan Ed)Fairy fort / earthen ringfort · 983 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Fairy fort / earthen ringfort in Corglass has two banks. That’s twice the trouble, right? The matchmaker who worked there probably cried into the ditches. Great spot to propose. Or at least to propose lunch.
Fair of MuffMemorial · 1359 ydExplorer Tom The Fair of Muff sculpture commemorates a horse fair that has been held on this spot for four centuries.
DrumskerryMountain / peak · 1479 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom I imagine Drumskerry in County Cavan is a peak that has been skipping stones across the sky for as long as anyone can remember.
Castle in ruinsCastle, unclassified · 1535 ydExplorer 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.
Our Lady of Mount CarmelChurch/chapel · 1.2 miExplorer Tom Our Lady of Mount Carmel is showing off its 1858 muscles because it replaced an older church from 1787. It’s got that fancy tower-like breakfront thing, which sounds like a muscle car. Take a selfie with it before it starts charging admission.
post box1.6 miExplorer 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.
Children's playground2.1 miComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom This Children's playground in County Cavan probably echoes with the sound of imagination taking flight on every single swing ride.
Horse-chestnut2.1 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 · 2.3 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.
