library/archive234 ydExplorer Tom The Curragh library smells of old soldiers’ stories and questionable canteen snacks from decades past. There’s a smuggling story about cheese that never quite made it through the border. Make a wish, it's had centuries to practice its dusty silence.

I bet a post office with a name like that could keep me talking all afternoon; I'm already inventing a daft little scene for it, and I'll stop before it turns into history.
Curragh Camp Fire StationFire station · 268 ydExplorer Tom Curragh Camp Fire Station looks like it was designed by a very anxious mother-in-law who loved symmetry. It towers over the military complex like a stern auntie checking your homework. If it's closed, admire its judgmental stare from afar.
Saint Brigid's Catholic ChurchChurch/chapel · 292 ydExplorer Tom Saint Brigid's Catholic Church in Curragh holds a fake world record for having the sternest front elevation. It’s all brick and seriousness, with no aisles to hide in. Perfect detour when your satnav starts crying from stress.

No indicatedMound · 902 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom No in Kildare is what the map makers called it when they gave up. It’s just a low bump at the foot of a slope that refuses to be named properly. Stop the car, it's worth the hazard lights.

Newbridge SilverwareMuseum · 2.5 miExplorer Tom Newbridge Silverware has caught my eye in County Kildare. I bet a museum with a name like that could keep me talking all afternoon; I'm already inventing a daft little scene for it, and I'll stop before it turns into history.

Bee-bee tree2.8 miExplorer 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.
