Belgard RoadMemorial · 547 ydExplorer Tom Belgard Road in County Dublin was opened by big wigs in 1981, so walk along it and feel important because you’re treading on ground that had a ceremony.
Children's playground653 ydComputer-made picture. It does not show this playground.Explorer Tom Children's playground in County Dublin is technically accessible, which means someone has been here recently. The gate creaks like a dying witch, so don’t be surprised if a little imp demands a toll before you enter.
Tynan Memorial CrossMonument · 700 ydExplorer Tom The Tynan Memorial Cross in Cookstown commemorates Katherine Tynan’s father, whose dairy farm was opposite. After a few pints, it might tell you the secret about why the cows were so moody. Own twist on this one is coming up!
gates/railings/walls705 ydExplorer Tom Belgard gates are robust enough to stop a tank but designed for a narrow laneway, which is basically just fancy overkill. A royal visit definitely happened there in 1742, and nobody has the receipts. Check the hinges for secret messages.
Main ReceptionVisitor information · 1112 ydExplorer Tom Main Reception is just a door with a sign on it, which is basically what most of Dublin feels like anyway. Knock twice if you feel brave.
Belgard CastleCastle · 1278 ydExplorer Tom Belgard Castle in County Dublin is sitting there looking all mysterious and ancient. No one seems to know its secrets, so I'll just pretend I do while we walk past it.
Font in TallaghtFont · 1320 ydExplorer Tom Font in Tallaght. Known as St. Maelruan's Griddle and Loaf, this basin has uneven sides. I can almost smell the bread baking! If it baked a loaf, it must have been a very heavy, granite one.
TombTomb, unclassified · 1320 ydComputer-made picture. It does not show this monument.Explorer Tom Tomb in Tallaght belongs to a Walsh who died in 1685 and has been inscribed ever since. He’s one of three tombs, so he’s got plenty of company for his eternal nap. Stand where the owner stood and practise looking smug.
Ballymount PlaygroundChildren's playground · 1351 ydComputer-made picture. It does not show this playground.Explorer Tom Ballymount Playground in County Dublin is where the tiny tyrants rule. I bet they’ve already claimed the swings as their own. Bow to them, yeah?
tallaght crossVisitor information · 1357 ydExplorer Tom Tallaght cross in County Dublin is right by a hotel. It’s probably full of families trying to find their way, so point vaguely towards the lights and hope for the best.
SpringfieldNamed rock · 1.0 miExplorer Tom Springfield in County Dublin is recorded as a named rock, which is weird because there’s also a hotel nearby. Maybe the rock got jealous of the accommodation? Take a selfie next to it if you find the actual stone.
CastleCastle, unclassified · 1.7 miExplorer Tom Castle in Clondalkin is Tully’s Castle, a narrow 16th-century tower with crenellations right on Monastery Road. It’s in state care, so it’s basically a celebrity that can’t leave the house. Ring your granny and tell her where you are before she worries about the round tower.
