FerryviewHouse · 33 ydExplorer Tom Ferryview on The Mall is posing for its own photos, thinking it's more elegant than it actually is. It’s got quoins that are just decorative rocks pretending to be important. Stand on one leg and don't wobble.
Explorer Tom Youghal Town Hall was built on reclaimed mud, which explains why it looks so smug about it. Its favourite song is 'The Old Rugged Road' because it’s still standing. A good place to feel important for free.
Schooner Nellie Fleming 1936Memorial · 139 ydSouth Abbey (Site of)Religious house, Franciscan friars · 283 ydExplorer Tom South Abbey is basically a ghost with commitment issues; Maurice Fitzgerald built it in 1224 and then it just vanished into thin air. The friars were so busy praying they forgot to keep the building standing. Take the long way round, it deserves the effort.
Clock TowerVisitor information · 300 yd
Ferry PointViewpoint · 542 yd
IndicatedCastle, tower house · 750 ydExplorer Tom Castle in Youghal-Lands is Tynte’s Castle, a tower house that survived the 15th century and probably some very awkward family dinners. It’s been altered so many times it doesn’t even know who its parents are anymore. Ten minutes here and you'll have a yarn for the pub.
English holly867 ydExplorer Tom Another English holly, smelling like wet cardboard and regret according to Tom's nose. It says it only grows on land that was once haunted by bad decisions. Dare you to say hello out loud, see if it flinches.
European Yew878 ydExplorer Tom This European Yew has strict visitor rules: no loud noises, no bad jokes, and definitely no touching the bark unless you've got permission. I probably didn't. Go on, count the branches and get it wrong like I did.
