Explorer Tom Graveyard (Disused) in Ballymadrough, County Dublin has a sunken bit that used to be a church but is now just a big hole in the ground. It's overgrown and looks like nature is trying to reclaim it from the humans, so tread carefully on those old stones.

Lanestown Castle in ruinsCastle, tower house · 1280 ydExplorer Tom Lanestown Castle in Newbridge Demesne is hiding behind some fancy gates like it’s shy. It’s got a vaulted ceiling and probably judges your shoes. Tell the next person you meet it's haunted. It might be.

Newbridge House and DemesneHeritage attraction · 1.1 miExplorer Tom Newbridge House and Demesne in County Dublin is in Donabate, which sounds like a place where people go to get away from it all.

Turvey HouseCastle, tower house · 1.5 miExplorer Tom Turvey House in Turvey was built from nunnery stones, so it’s basically recycled prayer. It got demolished once already, so it’s quite dramatic about endings. Ideal stop for a big stretch and a bigger yawn.
