Allenton HouseCountry house · 611 ydExplorer Tom Allenton House is the remains of a medieval tower and country house, dating back to c.1700. It’s ruinous now, but still a valuable historical record in the modern housing estate. The rubble walls are telling stories you can’t read, mate.
Jim Lawlor Bridge PlaqueVisitor information · 913 ydExplorer Tom Jim Lawlor Bridge Plaque honors a guy who gave his all to Tallaght. It’s a nice thought, but the bridge just keeps holding traffic up.
