office7 ydExplorer Tom Clare Street’s office building has yellow and red bricks that are arguing about who’s prettier. It used to be three separate places, now it’s just one big confused entity. End this with your own twist on a family feud over a window seat.
Lincoln ChambersHospital/infirmary · 27 ydExplorer Tom Lincoln Chambers used to be Saint Mark’s Ophthalmic Hospital before becoming offices in 1906. Now it’s back in healthcare, which is like a career change that went full circle. When nobody's looking, it probably checks its own eye chart and complains about the lighting. Tell the receptionist Tom says hi.
Price's Medical HallHouse · 44 ydExplorer Tom Price's Medical Hall on Clare Street has a Victorian bowed timber shopfront with decorative iron cresting that looks like it’s trying too hard. It was built for the sixth Viscount Fitzwilliam, so there’s some aristocratic bloodline involved in its walls. Spot the fancy bits before you get lost in the clutter.
Oscar Wilde MemorialMemorial · 175 ydExplorer Tom Oscar Wilde Memorial has three statues arguing about who looks best. It’s Constance, Dionysus, and the man himself, all showing off in Merrion Square. Take their picture before they get bored.
Trinity College DublinHistoric university campus · 277 ydExplorer Tom Trinity College Dublin is the big one at College Green, and I bet the books in there are whispering secrets to each other. It’s the whole campus, not just one building, so get lost for a bit. It’s safe... probably, but check the rules!
Burial (present location) in Unknown TownlandBurial (present location) · 285 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Burial in Dublin | A portion of a skeleton found in Burrow in 1981 now rests safely in the National Museum. It traveled from an unknown burial site to a glass case for safekeeping and study.
CrossCross, High cross (present location) · 285 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Cross. This shaft from Banagher was moved to Clonmacnoise, then to Dublin, where it is now on display. It is amusing that this stone had such a turbulent career, bouncing between locations like a tourist with no fixed address.
Bigleaf Maple347 ydExplorer Tom Another Bigleaf Maple in County Dublin, this one pretending it doesn't know I'm here. It’s probably posting about its 'roots' on social media, acting like a deep thinker when it's just a tree. Bring your own legend, I've run out of facts for you.
Oriental plane379 ydExplorer Tom This Oriental plane in County Dublin keeps getting wind in the hair because it’s too showy. Sit on a wall near it and pretend you’re in a painting that costs more than your rent.
Book of KellsHeritage attraction · 398 ydExplorer Tom Book of Kells in County Dublin is an 8th-century masterpiece that looks like it’s been arguing with angels, so stare at the pages until your eyes cross for luck.
Michael CollinsMemorial · 447 ydExplorer Tom Michael Collins 1890-1925 in County Dublin is another spot honoring the same big guy. It seems he had quite an impact on the area. Check out this second memorial and compare notes with the first!
Burning of the Custom HouseArmed conflict · 811 ydExplorer Tom Burning of the Custom House in County Dublin was a bargain gone wrong with fire involved. It looks dramatic from a distance, which is good for photos. Stand back, squint, and it looks like a castle.
