bridge1.4 miNewbridge Railway StationRailway station · 1.4 mi

Explorer Tom Newbridge Railway Station is deeply suspicious of the postman, thinking he’s stealing its thunder with all that mail. It’s a long, low brick beauty that just sits there judging your life choices. Whisper a secret at it, it's got time to spare.

water pump1.5 mi

Explorer Tom Water pump in Milltown gave up water for Lent but kept all the rust. It’s basically on a very long, wet diet. Dare you to say hello to it out loud and see if it answers back with a drip.

The CurraghEarthwork · 1.9 mi

Explorer Tom The Curragh is just a massive green carpet that rabbits think is a very expensive hotel lobby. It’s got more history than some countries, but none of the manners. Grand place for a sulk or a snog, your call.

Newbridge SilverwareMuseum · 2.1 miFire house (Site of)Building · 3.4 miBee-bee tree3.7 mi

Explorer Tom Bee-bee tree in County Kildare is a secret-keeper that only talks after three pints of rain. It’s got a story about being fancy that it won’t share. Bring a friend who talks too much and let the place shut them up.

Irish National Stud and Japanese GardensHeritage attraction · 3.7 miDawn Redwood3.8 mi

Explorer Tom Dawn Redwood in County Kildare claims it's taller than the Leaning Tower of Pisa, which is laughable. It just needs a hat to make you believe it. Pretend you're a lost aristocrat, nobody will check.

Grand Canal WayVisitor information · 5.9 miIndicatedCastle, motte · 6.9 mi

Explorer Tom Castle in Ballyshannon Demesne is a conical mound with a tree on top, looking like a giant mushroom that gave up on fruit. It handles nosey neighbours by staying quiet. If it rains, blame me.

Blackhall CastleCastle, tower house · 8.5 mi
