Whiteswall Graveyard

Explorer Tom Cahill has been in a bitter feud with the rain for about two hundred years now. Its thatched roof looks like it's giving up on the whole wet weather thing. Tell your mates you found it first to save face.

Explorer Tom Mary Tuohy in Rathdowney saw a ghost in 1925, or so the legend goes. Actually, it was just a cat on the roof. A handy spot to stretch your legs and your imagination before moving on.

Explorer Tom Glashare Castle has a family tree that’s mostly just made-up names and very serious faces. It looks like it’s judging your shoes from the top of its tower. Perfect detour when the satnav has a meltdown.

Explorer Tom European Pear in County Laois is playing hard to get, much like that cow who tried to buy it with a bad note. It’s probably judging your footwear right now. Ideal stop for a big stretch and a bigger yawn.
