post box92 ydExplorer Tom Post box in Corduff Common is stuck in the gate pier of a big house. It has an ER VII monogram and looks very important. Probably collecting letters for people who don’t live there anymore.
Corduff HouseFarm house · 326 ydExplorer Tom Corduff House in Corduff has a Diocletian window, which sounds like a Roman emperor who loved staring out at fields. Built in the 1750s, it’s older than most of our ancestors’ excuses for being late. Best seen with a hangover and a sausage roll, trust me.
Fulacht fia in ThomondtownFulacht fia · 862 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Fulacht fia in Thomondtown is another one from the same bypass, this time with a single trough filled with heat-shattered stones and charcoal soil. It’s like a smaller sibling to its neighbour, just sitting there under the road waiting for someone to find it again.
Fulacht fia in Coldwinters (balrothery East By.)Fulacht fia · 1017 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Coldwinters’ fulacht fia is a pit in a hollow, which is basically a hole with commitment issues. It has forty-three stake holes, so it definitely counts as a fence for its favourite song. Give it a pat on the way past, it's had a long life.
Children's playground1.1 miComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom This Children's playground in County Dublin is full of shadows that don’t match the equipment. Weird angles everywhere. Take a picture from a low angle to capture it.
Dun Emer PlaygroundChildren's playground · 1.2 miComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Dun Emer Playground in County Dublin is playing hide-and-seek with its history. Nothing recorded, so I suspect the merry-go-round spins time backwards. Take a pic for me!
Roseville Business ParkVisitor information · 1.2 miExplorer Tom Roseville Business Park in County Dublin is showing off another photo of Eastpoint. I'm starting to think it's just one big office park with two names. Take a picture for me and tell the workers hi.
Turvey Allotments and Nature ReserveNature reserve · 1.3 miExplorer Tom Turvey Allotments and Nature Reserve in County Dublin is like Arne in Dorset. RSPB vibes without the membership fees. Probably full of very serious birds.
Thomas AsheMemorial · 1.3 miExplorer Tom Thomas Ashe in County Dublin is a memorial that definitely knows he’s important. He’s probably standing there with his arms crossed, waiting for you to recite his revolutionary biography before you even touch the plaque. Keep it brief, yeah?
Turvey HouseCastle, tower house · 1.4 miExplorer Tom Turvey House in Turvey was built from nunnery stones, so it’s basically recycled prayer. It got demolished once already, so it’s quite dramatic about endings. Ideal stop for a big stretch and a bigger yawn.
Graveyard in LuskGraveyard · 1.5 miExplorer Tom Graveyard in Lusk has a low stone wall that’s been collapsed and repaired many times. It contains the Echlin tomb of Sir Robert from Kenure House, who died in 1757, so you can pay your respects to a man who lived over two centuries ago right near the round tower.
Lanestown Castle in ruinsCastle, tower house · 2.0 miExplorer Tom Lanestown Castle in Newbridge Demesne is hiding behind some fancy gates like it’s shy. It’s got a vaulted ceiling and probably judges your shoes. Tell the next person you meet it's haunted. It might be.
