Graveslab in RathmichaelGraveslab · 4 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Graveslab in Rathmichael has just two cup-marks left. It’s like the stone gave up on the whole design thing. Linger, it's not going anywhere and neither should you, honestly.
Round Tower8 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Rathmichael’s round tower is basically a stub of a stone leg, lying about on the slope of Carrickgollogan. It’s short, stout, and definitely not going anywhere, which is perfect because you’re too tired to climb it. Go on a wet day, it suits the mood.
Rathmichael ChurchChurch · 10 ydExplorer Tom Rathmichael Church has been lying in ruins for four hundred years, but still hosts a graveyard party. St Michael is watching over it from the Carrickgollogan slopes. Don’t forget to check the landowner before you wander in!
Shankill HouseCountry house · 318 ydExplorer Tom Shankill House was erected by Jasper Villiers Fowler in the early 19th century. It’s got a square plan and overlooks the Irish Sea and Bray Head. It’s been vacant since 2012, which makes it perfect for imagining all the parties that could have happened there! Don’t let the silence fool you!
Rathmichael WalkWalking route · 497 ydExplorer Tom Rathmichael Walk in County Dublin is playing hard to get. My mate says it’s a city tour, but I bet the ghosts are doing the walking. Send me a photo of the mystery!
Bawn in RathmichaelBawn · 674 ydExplorer Tom Rathfarnham Castle has been passed around like a hot potato from the Loftus family to the Earls of Ely. It’s got a colonnaded portico now, which is just fancy words for 'we added some curtains.' Great spot to propose. Or at least to propose lunch.
Puck's CastleCastle · 680 ydExplorer Tom Puck's Castle in County Dublin sounds like something from a fairy tale, which fits perfectly since we're in Ireland. It's in Shankill, so if you see any mischievous sprites, just nod at them politely and move on.
Children's playground1295 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Children's playground in County Dublin is private, which means it's definitely hiding something big. Maybe a buried treasure chest? Knock politely and listen for gold!
Carrickgollogan HillMountain / peak · 1.2 miExplorer Tom Carrickgollogan Hill is showing off its summit to everyone. It’s just sitting there in County Dublin looking smug, so grab a photo for me if you get close enough to see it properly.
Monterey Cypress1.4 miExplorer Tom This Monterey Cypress in County Dublin is definitely listening to a fiddler who never stops playing. The music is stuck in its branches. Bring a friend who talks too much and let the place shut them up.
Proclamation of the Irish RepublicMemorial · 2.0 miExplorer Tom Proclamation of the Irish Republic is a big deal in County Dublin. It’s a memorial to history changing. The picture looks nice from a distance. Get closer and listen to the echoes of old speeches.

Killiney BeachBeach / strand · 2.3 miExplorer Tom Killiney Beach in County Dublin boasts views of Bray Head. It’s showing off its scenery. Remind it that a beach is for swimming, not just sitting around admiring other hills from afar.
