post box809 ydExplorer Tom Post box in Mountolive is wearing a little Gaelic hat from 1940. It’s got a fancy dentillated frieze that makes it look like it’s about to recite poetry. Tap the door gently; it might be asleep inside the concrete plinth.
Walmer VillaHouse · 950 ydExplorer Tom Walmer Villa on Tuscany Downs in Mountolive, County Dublin has a cast-iron veranda that’s basically a fancy garden shed from 1825. It was a dower house, so it knows how to relax. Snap the open-work ironwork for me.
Children's playground1599 ydComputer-made picture. It does not show this playground.Explorer Tom Children's playground in County Dublin is being mysterious again. Unknown access! Could be a castle of cards, or just regular old sand. You decide!
Holm Oak1.3 miExplorer Tom Holm Oak in County Dublin looks like it's stuck in Italy. The photo says Livorno, so where did this one come from? Probably wandered in looking for a beach vacation.
St. Anns WellHoly well · 1.3 miExplorer Tom St. Anns Well in County Dublin sits at the base of a ridge in St. Anne's Park. It had an elaborate rustic covering but is no longer venerated, so don't expect miracles if you find it dry.
Herb GardenGarden · 1.4 miComputer-made picture. It does not show this garden.Explorer Tom Herb Garden in County Dublin is probably full of weeds pretending to be mint. No info? I bet there's a secret recipe hidden in the soil. Don't eat anything unless you're sure, mate.
Graveyard in Kilbarrack LowerGraveyard · 1.5 miExplorer Tom Graveyard in Kilbarrack Lower was originally built right on the strand before they walled it off. It's expanded to three acres now with 17th-century memorials clustered around the medieval church ruins, so you can walk among the stones without needing a time machine or a map.

St Catherine's WellSpring · 1.8 miExplorer Tom St Catherine's Well in County Dublin is tucked near Malahide, which is fancy, but this well looks like it forgot to iron its shirt. It might be a wishing well for lost keys. Make a wish and keep moving!
Baldoyle Estuary Nature ReserveNature reserve · 1.9 miExplorer Tom Baldoyle Estuary Nature Reserve in County Dublin is where the mud probably got into my boots last time. I saw a view from Strand Road that looked like it belonged in a painting. Go take a photo of the water for me, mate!
Dollymount StrandBeach / strand · 2.0 miExplorer Tom Dollymount Strand in County Dublin is where people learn to drive on sand. Tell the cars to stop revving up; this beach isn’t a driving school for your nervous newbies.
Battle of ClontarfMajor battlefield · 2.2 miExplorer Tom Battle of Clontarf in County Dublin is where Brian Boru and the Vikings had their big noisy argument over a thousand years ago. The ground probably still remembers who kicked whom, so step gently or you’ll wake them up.
Clontarf CastleCastle, Anglo-Norman masonry castle · 2.4 miExplorer Tom Clontarf Castle is a Tudor-Revival house with a mock Norman keep, occupying the site of Adam de Phephoe’s 12th-century original stronghold.
