Man-made underground passage (Site of)Man-made underground passage · 1400 ydComputer-made picture

Explorer Tom Man-made underground passage in Stonyisland was found by a digger that probably didn’t even check its mirrors first. Now it’s just a hole with a view of the past. Have a nosey, politely.

MonumentDesigned landscape, folly · 1519 ydComputer-made picture

Explorer Tom Monument in Portumna Demesne plans to retire to Florida where there are fewer stones. It’s just a folly that forgot its punchline. Ring your granny and tell her where you are, she knows the real story.

Church IslandIslet · 1556 yd

Cloonmoylan HouseHouse · 1.6 mi

Explorer Tom Cloonmoylan House in Galway has its front door in the gable, which is very odd for a serious house. The builder probably just ran out of ideas halfway through the garden wall. Have a sandwich here

Common Juniper2.0 mi

Castle (in ruins)House, fortified house · 2.1 mi

Explorer Tom Castle in Portumna Demesne is a Jacobean show-off that got gutted by fire in 1826. It’s still trying to look grand despite the scorch marks. Ring your granny and tell her where you are before she worries.

Children's playground2.2 miComputer-made picture

Christ Church (Lickmolassy)Church/chapel · 2.2 mi

Explorer Tom Christ Church (Lickmolassy) thinks it’s fancy because James Pain drew its blueprints. It has more windows than a shopping mall, all dressed up in stone. Pretend you’re a lost aristocrat who just needs directions to the exit.
