The LamplighterHouse · 22 ydExplorer Tom The Lamplighter in The Coombe is a Victorian pub with stucco work so fancy it’s basically showing off. It probably bragged about surviving a storm while you were inside hiding from the rain. Lo, behold the corner!
KearnsHouse · 27 ydExplorer Tom Kearns on The Coombe looks like it’s trying to sell its soul to a cow who wants to buy it. It’s got shopfronts that have seen better days, but the charm is undeniable. Stand where the cow would stand and wink at it.
hospital/infirmary47 ydExplorer Tom Hospital or infirmary in County Dublin is just a leftover portico from the Coombe. Three arches standing there like they’ve seen some serious stuff since the 1800s. It’s spooky but cool, don’t worry too much.
Gallows in Unknown TownlandGallows · 87 ydTom: I’m here to help · Computer-made picture. It does not show this monument.Explorer Tom Gallows in Dublin was located along the Coombe at Ash Street for the Archbishops. There are no visible remains now, so it’s just a spot where people used to hang, which is a great conversation starter if you’re feeling brave.
fountain105 ydExplorer Tom House on Leeson Street Lower is a Georgian townhouse from 1800, now living its best apartment life. The brickwork is solid even if some bits are missing. Grab a shot of that doorcase for me!
Sacred Heart of JesusWayside shrine · 105 ydTom: I’m here to help · Computer-made picture. It does not show this monument.Explorer Tom Sacred Heart of Jesus in County Dublin is keeping secrets. No account? Rude! He’s probably having a quiet cuppa with the local ghosts, ignoring us completely.
Blessed Virgin MaryWayside shrine · 118 ydTom: I’m here to help · Computer-made picture. It does not show this monument.Explorer Tom Blessed Virgin Mary in County Dublin is probably judging my hiking boots right now. She looks like she’s about to tell me to stop slouching and eat more vegetables. Take her photo!
Uckg Help CentreMalt house · 164 ydExplorer Tom Uckg Help Centre in County Dublin was once a malthouse but now preaches the gospel from a limestone shell. Built by Phoenix Brewery in 1899, it's all about that yellow brick contrast. The catslide roof is doing its best to look important. Just listen for the sermon.
post box167 ydExplorer Tom Post box at Gray Street and Pimlico has a dentillated cornice that makes it look like it’s wearing a tiny hat. It replaced an older one, so it feels like the new kid in school. Ideal for dropping a love letter you’re too scared to send.
Children's playground218 ydTom: I’m here to help · Computer-made picture. It does not show this playground.Explorer Tom Another Children's playground in County Dublin with no record. It might be full of fairies. Put out some jam for them and see if they leave a thank-you note!
Teeling Whiskey CompanyHeritage attraction · 292 ydExplorer Tom Teeling Whiskey Company in County Dublin is making me thirsty already. It’s a distillery, so expect the smell of money and hops. Snap a shot for me!
European Pear636 ydExplorer Tom European Pear in County Dublin is filing a formal complaint with the council about how many people ignore it. It’s got all the fruit and none of the attention it deserves, frankly. Have a wander and a wonder at this neglected beauty.
