gate lodge474 yd

Explorer Tom Gate lodge in Castleknock is a yellow brick show-off from 1905 with advanced gables. It’s got red brick dressings and looks like it’s waiting for a parade. Take a picture of the roundel for me, yeah?

Ennis HouseHouse · 546 yd

Explorer Tom Ennis House in Castleknock is an end-of-terrace gem from 1860. It’s got ogee horns on the windows that look like they’re trying to fly away. The nap rendered walls are lined and ruled, which is quite the detail.

Ashtown Lodge groundsGarden · 792 ydComputer-made picture. It does not show this garden.

Explorer Tom Ashtown Lodge grounds in County Dublin are private-ish and full of mystery gardens waiting to be explored. The lodge is probably judging your shoes. Take a picture of any flowers you can spot without trespassing!

The Royal Canal WayWalking route · 1035 yd

Explorer Tom The Royal Canal Way in County Dublin is stuck near Castleknock. The water looks lazy, so I’m betting the path is too. Drop a shot of that lock for my album!

National Famine WayWalking route · 1045 yd

Explorer Tom National Famine Way in County Dublin is dodging me like it’s got secrets. There’s a lock on the Royal Canal nearby, so maybe the famine just got thirsty? Snap one for me!

Children's playground1098 ydComputer-made picture. It does not show this playground.

Explorer Tom This Children's playground in County Dublin is playing hard to get. Rumour has it the seesaw is actually a sleeping dragon. If you hear snoring, back away slowly and take a photo!

Castleknock CastleCastle · 1322 yd

Explorer Tom Castleknock Castle in County Dublin is perched right on top of a big old mound, just showing off. It's next to a college, so maybe the students are living in ghost stories now?

Oldtown WoodWood · 1.3 mi

Explorer Tom Oldtown Wood in County Dublin gives a glimpse of the 'Fifteen Acres' and mountains. Sounds like a real estate listing. Probably beautiful though. Take a picture of the gap, not just the trees.

Knockmaree DolmenArchaeological place · 1.8 mi

Explorer Tom Knockmaree Dolmen in County Dublin is having a nap under its giant stone blanket. It’s been snoozing for ages, dreaming about ancient farmers. Wake it up gently if you dare!

IndicatedFairy fort / ringfort · 1.9 mi

Explorer Tom Fairy fort or ringfort in Corduff: A scarped platform now flanked by playing pitches and used for anti-social behaviour. Ancient giants must hate modern teenagers’ noise levels.

Horse-chestnut2.5 mi

Explorer Tom Horse-chestnut in County Dublin is all about the nuts. The photo shows some in Germany, so this one might be an impostor. Check for chestnuts before you touch it!

Islandbridge LodgeVisitor information · 2.5 mi

Explorer 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.
