Explorer Tom Bridge in Grangegorman Middle is a stone arch from 1845 that carries Cabra Road over an old railway line. It’s got ashlar limestone and rock-faced voussoirs that look like they’re about to crunch something. It’s part of a group of rail bridges. Watch out for the trains, even if they're gone!

Explorer Tom Chinese Toon in County Dublin? That's a bit of a stretch, isn't it? The picture shows a temple, not this. It's playing dress-up as an ancient wise man.

Explorer Tom Caucasian Zelkova in County Dublin sounds exotic but looks like a regular street tree. It's probably wondering why we're all so confused about its origins. Pat it gently.
