post box221 ydExplorer Tom Post box in County Dublin is wearing a Carron Scotland badge like it’s royalty, but it’s just a 1960s mailman’s buddy. It stood on Ballyfermot Road watching the chaos unfold. Give it a thumbs up for me if you spot it!
Sabine TerraceHouse · 448 ydExplorer Tom Sabine Terrace on Saint Laurence Road is a pair of semi-detached houses from 1860 that look like they were designed by someone who read too much architecture books. It’s got round-headed doorcases and elliptical windows that are trying to be fancy. Tell the residents Tom says their house looks like it belongs in a magazine!
Boundary VillaHouse · 461 ydExplorer Tom Boundary Villa in County Dublin is facing the wrong way for a reason. It’s got slate hanging on the back, which is very rural and very confused. Don’t stare too long; it might get shy about its unusual orientation.

Church of Our Lady of the AssumptionChurch/chapel · 470 ydExplorer Tom Our Lady of the Assumption church cost a fortune back in '53. Mahogany seats for nearly two thousand people! It looks like it swallowed a whole city block. Big energy.
Knockmaree DolmenArchaeological place · 1071 ydExplorer Tom Knockmaree Dolmen in County Dublin is having a nap under its giant stone blanket. It’s been snoozing for ages, dreaming about ancient farmers. Wake it up gently if you dare!
Stone of RemembranceMonument · 1.1 miExplorer Tom Stone of Remembrance in County Dublin says their names live forever, which is a bold claim considering most of us forget our own names on Monday mornings, so maybe keep your head up if you hear whispers.
Executions of the leaders of the 1916 risingMemorial · 1.4 miExplorer Tom Executions of the leaders of the 1916 rising is pointing at Kilmainham Gaol like it’s blaming the building for everything. Fourteen guys got the axe, but this spot just wants you to feel dramatic about the whole bloody affair.
Kilmainham Jail MuseumMuseum · 1.4 miExplorer Tom Kilmainham Jail Museum in County Dublin is basically the same place as the gaol, but with a brochure. It’s like going to the same party twice. Grab a souvenir for me.
Horse-chestnut1.6 miExplorer Tom Horse-chestnut in County Dublin is all about the nuts. The photo shows some in Germany, so this one might be an impostor. Check for chestnuts before you touch it!
Royal Hospital KilmainhamHeritage attraction · 1.7 miExplorer Tom Royal Hospital Kilmainham in County Dublin is heritage. Soldiers used to live there. Take a photo of the red brick facade for me.
Silver maple1.9 miExplorer Tom Silver maple in County Dublin is using a Grimes Farm photo. It’s showing off its American cousin. Tell it that maple syrup doesn’t taste as good when it’s pretending to be Irish.
Castleknock CastleCastle · 2.1 miExplorer Tom Castleknock Castle in County Dublin is perched right on top of a big old mound, just showing off. It's next to a college, so maybe the students are living in ghost stories now?
