Church of Our Lady of the AssumptionChurch/chapel · 87 ydExplorer Tom Church of Our Lady of the Assumption in Ballyfermot is sick of being asked how much those mahogany seats cost. It was built in 1953 to seat nearly two thousand people because everyone wanted to be there. If you ask one more time about the budget, the priest might excommunicate you.
post box178 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!
Knockmaree DolmenArchaeological place · 1127 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!
Irish National War Memorial GardensPark · 1.3 miExplorer Tom Irish National War Memorial Gardens in County Dublin is pretending to be a graveyard, but it’s just fancy grass pretending to be solemn. I bet the flags are laughing at us for taking it so seriously.
Dome-Shaped TempleMonument · 1.3 miExplorer Tom Dome-Shaped Temple in County Dublin is quoting Rupert Brooke about safety while looking suspiciously round. Don't trust it; domes are always up to something sneaky.
Islandbridge LodgeVisitor information · 1.5 miExplorer Tom Islandbridge Lodge sounds fancy but it’s probably just a big old house with opinions. The garden might bite back if you’re not polite.
Executions of the leaders of the 1916 risingMemorial · 1.6 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.
Proclamation SculptureSculpture · 1.6 miExplorer Tom Proclamation Sculpture in County Dublin is shouting its message from long ago, hoping someone finally listens. Tell me if you understood a word, or just nodded politely!
Horse-chestnut1.8 miExplorer Tom Horse-chestnut in County Dublin is waiting for a cow that tried to buy it with a milk ticket last Tuesday. The cow left without paying and the tree is still fuming about the audacity of the whole situation. It's the kind of place that makes a dull Tuesday interesting, trust me.
Castleknock CastleCastle · 1.9 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?
Sean HeustonMemorial · 2.0 miExplorer Tom Sean Heuston's memorial in County Dublin is right by Phoenix Park, which has the biggest flower garden in Europe. He was a politician, so he probably liked flowers more than people. Check it out!
Silver maple2.1 miExplorer Tom Silver maple in County Dublin is just a tree, but it looks like it's judging your life choices from its high perch. Bring wellies and low expectations, leave delighted because the leaves are doing something fancy with the wind.
