Children's playground24 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom This Children's playground in County Dublin has no details, so I'm claiming it's cursed by a grumpy cat. Find the cat and pet it gently for luck!
Inchicore Railway WorksGates/railings/walls · 108 ydExplorer Tom Inchicore Railway Works boundary wall encloses a model village built for workers in 1846. The Great Southern & Western Railway was big then, and the wall keeps everyone in their lanes. I bet there’s a hidden treasure inside that’s definitely a biscuit tin from 1950. Dig if you dare, but don’t blame me for the dirt.
Office of Public WorksFactory · 170 ydExplorer Tom Office of Public Works factory on Jamestown Road was designed by Michael Scott for CIÉ back in the 1940s. It’s got steel and concrete that look like they’re trying very hard to be modern. Wave at the windows; maybe a bus driver from the past is still working there, waiting for their break.
Old milestone494 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Old milestone in County Dublin says '6 D'. That could be six miles, or maybe six days of bad luck if you touch it wrong. Your call, mate.
Markievicz PlaygroundChildren's playground · 879 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Markievicz Playground in County Dublin is keeping its cards close to the chest. Legend says the slide leads directly to the bottom of the sea. Don’t believe me? Go find out yourself!
Old boundary stone967 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Old boundary stone in County Dublin is number twenty-five on the north side. It’s probably just counting heads, or maybe waiting for a parade that never happens.
Carriglea Industrial EstateMemorial · 1146 ydExplorer Tom Carriglea Industrial Estate in County Dublin is an abandoned memorial, which is a bit of a stretch. It looks derelict and spooky, like a factory ghost story. Take a photo but don't stay too long.
Toni'sPicnic place · 1303 ydExplorer Tom Toni's in County Dublin is having a picnic with itself. It claims to be a spot for snacks, but I suspect the sandwiches are long gone and only crumbs remain.
Executions of the leaders of the 1916 risingMemorial · 1649 ydExplorer Tom Executions of the leaders of the 1916 rising is pointing at Kilmainham Gaol like it’s blaming the building for everything. Fourteen guys got the axe, but this spot just wants you to feel dramatic about the whole bloody affair.
Explorer Tom Magazine Fort in County Dublin is named after storing stuff, probably gunpowder or something equally explosive. It's sitting there looking solid, so maybe don't bring matches just to be safe, yeah?
Mote (site of)Castle, motte · 1.1 miExplorer Tom This possible motte castle belonged to the Royal Manor of Crumlin. Henry Compton had fierce opposition from tenants back in 1290. Find the date carved somewhere and feel clever, even if it is just a legend.
Islandbridge LodgeVisitor information · 1.1 miExplorer Tom Islandbridge Lodge sounds fancy but it’s probably just a big old house with opinions. The garden might bite back if you’re not polite.
