Viatores Christi/Nahori & CoHouse · 86 ydExplorer Tom House in Grangegorman Middle on Cabra Road is an early Victorian building with granite quoins and an imposing doorcase. It’s one of the grander houses left, so it’s like the cool older sibling in the terrace. Saint Patrick would probably say it’s a bit much for a house.
Saint Laurence House / Saint Peter's ClubHouse · 98 ydExplorer Tom House in Grangegorman Middle is sitting back from Cabra Road looking incredibly imposing with its exuberant fanlight doorcase. It was likely built as a pair and now acts as a social center for the local parish.
Altinure TerraceHouse · 131 ydExplorer Tom Altinure Terrace in Grangegorman Middle is five houses pretending to be one big family photo. They all have the same door, which means finding the right one is a nightmare. Dare you to count the windows before you get lost in the uniformity.
OrbyHouse · 138 ydExplorer Tom Orby on Cabra Road in County Dublin is part of a terrace that looks identical to its neighbours, which is suspicious. The fiddler who played there all night probably got kicked out for being too loud. Just nod and walk away quietly.
Serenity Community GardenGarden · 368 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Serenity Community Garden is supposedly peaceful, which is code for 'someone might be knitting aggressively.' Snap a pic of the calmest flower you find.
Small urban parkGarden · 498 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Small urban park in County Dublin is tiny but mighty, like a pocket rocket. Snap a photo of the smallest blade of grass and frame it grandly.
Frank DuffMemorial · 546 ydExplorer Tom Frank Duff in County Dublin is where the Legion of Mary boss was born back in 1889. He kicked off a whole religious movement from that house, which is pretty wild for just a birthplace.
Old boundary stone573 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Old boundary stone in County Dublin is just standing there looking very important for no good reason. It’s pretending it holds the map to the whole area. I’d bet it’s just a fancy paperweight.
Irish Volunteers memorialMonument · 584 ydExplorer Tom Irish Volunteers memorial in County Dublin was chiselled by Leo Broe. He probably got paid in sandwiches. The sculpture looks like it’s thinking hard about lunch.
Virgin MaryWayside shrine · 811 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Virgin Mary in County Dublin is probably just a bush with a cross, but I bet she's watching me. Grab a flower if you see it!
Chinese Toon865 ydExplorer Tom Chinese Toon in County Dublin would rate its visitors two stars out of five for lack of appreciation. It smells amazing but acts like you owe it rent for breathing the air around it. Linger, it's not going anywhere and neither should you.
London Plane1161 ydExplorer Tom Another London Plane in County Dublin is just vibing there, ignoring all the nosey neighbours. Hang around long enough and you’ll hear a story from a local who definitely knows nothing.
