Griffith ParkVisitor information · 11 ydExplorer Tom Griffith Park claims to be grand, but I’ve seen better gardens in my back shed. Bring a thermos if you want to feel important.
post box49 ydExplorer Tom Post Box in County Dublin is a shiny little metal guy from around 1940. He’s got a dome hat and stands on Botanic Avenue looking confused. Tell him hi, he’s probably just waiting for letters.

IndicatedHoly well · 250 ydExplorer Tom Holy well in County Dublin is Danes Well or Tobar na Lochlannach, now covered behind housing off Fairfield Road. Fallen statues were found nearby, suggesting it was once a curative spot with some very dramatic Viking-era decoration.
Bank of IrelandBank/financial institution · 311 ydExplorer Tom Bank of Ireland in County Dublin was built between 1932 and 1935 by Adam Millar. It sits on a corner with a flat-roofed porch that looks like it’s waiting for a bus. Don’t count your coins too hard!
Dean Swift BridgeBridge · 316 ydExplorer Tom Dean Swift Bridge in County Dublin is named after a man who probably never walked across it. It’s concrete and geometric, doing its best inter-war classicism impression with those lamp standards. Take a bow for the bridge, it’s feeling shy today.
Percy Edwin LudgateMemorial · 518 ydExplorer Tom Percy Edwin Ludgate invented the world's second computer here. That’s massive news, but nobody talks about it. He was a pioneer in County Dublin. Tell him I appreciate his binary brilliance!
Tree of Heaven580 ydExplorer Tom Tree of Heaven in County Dublin is showing off a German photo. It’s feeling cosmopolitan. Ask it if it actually flies or if it just gets very dizzy at the top.
Glasnevin cemetery Ireland's necropolisVisitor information · 621 ydExplorer Tom Glasnevin cemetery Ireland's necropolis is full of people who are definitely not listening to me right now. They’re buried under all that history and moss. Leave them a little stone if you're feeling generous.
Caucasian zelkova624 ydExplorer Tom Caucasian Zelkova in County Dublin sounds exotic but looks like a regular street tree. It's probably wondering why we're all so confused about its origins. Pat it gently.
Reconstructed viking houseHeritage attraction · 638 ydExplorer Tom Reconstructed viking house in County Dublin is pretending it’s original. It’s a heritage attraction now, which is rich. Snap one for me if you see it!
Graveyard in Unknown TownlandGraveyard · 817 ydExplorer Tom Graveyard in Dublin is tucked at the end of a cul-de-sac, enclosing a triangular patch for St Mobhi. The Church of Ireland stands right in the middle, looking quite regal and unbothered.
