Children's playground64 ydComputer-made picture. It does not show this playground.Explorer Tom Private Children's playground in County Dublin. They don't want you there, which means it must be good. Peek over the fence and tell me what you see.
church/chapel75 ydExplorer Tom Church or chapel in County Dublin is a Greek Revival Presbyterian ruin with only the front façade standing. It’s a high-quality stone masonry example on Seán McDermott Street that survived a fire in the 1980s, oddly enough.
Killarney CourtApartment/flat (purpose-built) · 81 ydExplorer Tom Killarney Court is a square of social housing from 1945. It’s got that Art Deco look that says 'we meant business.' If you see a courtyard, wave at your neighbours who probably won’t wave back.
Firestation Artists StudioFire station · 97 ydExplorer Tom Fire station in County Dublin is now artists’ studios on Buckingham Street Lower. Built in 1900, it was the first modern one. Snap a pic of those giant order pilasters, they’re really impressive!
McMahon Galvin Insurance BrokersHouse · 140 ydExplorer Tom This Amiens Street House is wearing an Ionic doorcase like it owns the place. It survived the railway era without blinking. I reckon the brown brick is just being shy about how good it looks. Wave to it if you can!
Monastery of Our Lady of Charity RefugeLaundry · 142 ydExplorer Tom Monastery of Our Lady of Charity Refuge in County Dublin was a laundry for Magdalen women. It looks a bit derelict now, sadly. The brick building is quiet. Take a respectful pic for me.

Bombing of the North StrandMemorial · 336 ydExplorer Tom Bombing of the North Strand in County Dublin is a heavy spot with history, so keep your voice down and maybe leave some flowers if you feel particularly sentimental today.
1974 Dublin and Monaghan Bombings MemorialMonument · 367 ydExplorer Tom This monument for the 1974 bombings stands on Talbot Street. Thirty-three people died that day, which was the worst loss during The Troubles.
Burning of the Custom HouseArmed conflict · 751 ydExplorer Tom Burning of the Custom House in County Dublin turned a nice building into a fireball in 1921. The caption says it was burning on May 25th. Take a picture of your own burning toast for comparison, yeah?
IndicatedMonumental structure · 875 ydExplorer Tom Monumental structure. Parnell’s monument was still being planned in 1899, right before independence, yet he arrived at a ceremony in 1882. How does one build a tribute to someone whose life story is still unfolding?
Theobald MathewMonument · 897 ydExplorer Tom Theobald Mathew in County Dublin is the Temperance Priest, meaning he told everyone to stop drinking, so if you're having a pint nearby, maybe keep your voice down just in case he's still judging from the top of his pedestal.
