post box148 ydExplorer Tom Post box in Donnycarney is standing alone on Malahide Road looking very official. It’s got a Celtic script monogram from 1940 that seems to be winking at me. Give it a big shiny polish for me!
Clontarf Golf ClubHouse · 176 ydExplorer Tom Clontarf Golf Club is actually a Victorian house built for Robert C., who probably thought it looked very dignified before they turned it into a place to hit small balls. The asymmetrical façade is a feature of middle-class houses, which means it’s modest but confident about being different. Get your clubs ready, you’re not playing golf here.
Children's playground316 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Here is Children's playground in County Dublin. The monkey bars have a gap that looks like a smile. It’s friendly, unlike my ex-wife.
Casino at MarinoHeritage attraction · 319 ydExplorer Tom Casino at Marino in County Dublin is a fancy name for a building by the water. It's not for gambling, unless you count losing your sense of direction. Take a picture of the view.
Mp2Old milestone · 558 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Old milestone in County Dublin claims GPO is two miles and Malahide is seven, which sounds about right if you’re running on empty legs. I’d bet the stone knows the shortcut to a good pub. Check the numbers!
London Plane581 ydExplorer Tom London Plane in County Dublin is playing hide-and-seek with my curiosity. It’s got that fancy trunk look, so pretend you’re a lost aristocrat and nobody will check your credentials.
Old milestone794 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Old milestone in County Dublin says P.O. Dublin 2 to Howth 7. That’s a long walk for a postman back then! Bet it’s still counting miles in its head.
Clontarf CastleCastle, Anglo-Norman masonry castle · 1448 ydExplorer Tom Clontarf Castle has a mock Norman keep added in 1837, which is quite cheeky for a Tudor-Revival house. Adam de Phephoe was there way back when. Bring your worst joke, the place has heard worse from tourists.
Clontarf Castle HotelVisitor information · 1618 ydExplorer Tom Clontarf Castle Hotel has been around since 1936, so it's seen better days and definitely worse weather. The picture shows it looking a bit tired, so maybe the ghost of the original owner is just napping in the lobby.
Seán Russell Memorial StatueMemorial · 1644 ydExplorer Tom The Seán Russell Memorial Statue in Fairview Park was once painted with a rainbow base, which is very on-brand for Dublin. He looks serious now, but he used to be colorful. Get that shot!
East Point Business ParkVisitor information · 1647 ydExplorer Tom East Point Business Park is a visitor information centre? Who visits a business park for fun? Probably just lost accountants and very confused tourists. Ask them if the coffee is still hot.
Killing of David ByrneMurder · 1.0 miExplorer Tom Killing of David Byrne in County Dublin is near the Regency Airport Hotel, which sounds very fancy. The death happened close to a main route. Take a pic of the hotel and pretend you’re checking in for good.
