Children's playground30 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Children's playground in County Dublin where the seesaw is balanced by an invisible weight. If you sit on one side, the other side lifts a ghost into the air. Spooky, or just science?
Booterstown MarshNature reserve · 105 ydExplorer Tom Booterstown Marsh in County Dublin was photographed by someone named Albert White back in 2007. That’s quite a while ago, so the reeds might have grown taller since then. Find it and send me a current picture to compare with old times!
Blackrock ParkVisitor information · 130 ydExplorer Tom Blackrock Park in 2025 is telling you exactly what you need to know before you go, which is nothing useful at all. Take a photo of the ducks; they're better at explaining things than the signs are.
Old milestone368 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Old milestone in County Dublin is playing hide-and-seek with me. No records? Typical Dublin mystery. It’s probably hiding behind a hedge, judging by the lack of info.
CastleCastle, tower house · 518 ydExplorer Tom Castle in Booterstown is stuck next to marshland, which is a hell of a location for a 15th-century fortress. The Fitzwilliams built it on the site of an older one, so it’s basically a remix. Mind the nettles, because they are the actual security team here.
Church in Unknown TownlandChurch · 707 ydExplorer Tom Church in Dublin has vanished above ground, but I bet the seagulls are still gossiping about where it went. A satin doublet was bequeathed to it, which is peak medieval fashion. Snap one photo, then put the phone away and actually look.
McCabe's Villas PlaygroundChildren's playground · 735 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom McCabe's Villas Playground in County Dublin is waving at you from behind a fence. The slides are said to be haunted by a very cheeky clown. If he honks his horn, run as fast as you can!
Fish PondFish-pond · 979 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Fish Pond in Dublin is associated with Merrion Castle and shown on an 1862 map as a D-shaped enclosure. It’s bounded by an earthwork and the shore, which sounds like a very exclusive club for fish with poor visibility.
Merrion StrandBeach / strand · 1207 ydExplorer Tom Merrion Strand in County Dublin has 'Cockle Lake' in its description. Tell the lake it’s not really a lake, it’s just a very stubborn puddle that refuses to leave at low tide.
Blackrock Baths (closed)Ruins · 1322 ydExplorer Tom Blackrock Baths in County Dublin are closed, but I suspect they’re still warm from all that steam. The nuns probably hated the cold water. Enjoy the chill factor!
James Joyce Pub AwardMemorial · 1479 ydExplorer Tom James Joyce Pub Award in County Dublin is given for being an authentic Irish pub. Which mostly means they serve cold stew and stare at you. Enjoy the vibe!
Oriental plane1512 ydExplorer Tom Oriental plane in County Dublin has a ghost that is far too lazy to haunt it properly. The light changes here are actually pretty decent, though. Stick around for the light changing, it's a show.
