Saint Anne's Catholic ChurchChurch/chapel · 45 yd

Explorer Tom Saint Anne's Catholic Church is a T-shaped building designed by Ashlin and Coleman in 1930. It’s a simplification of their Limerick church design, but still looks pretty grand with its double-height nave and side aisles.

Saint Anne'sHouse · 109 yd

Explorer Tom Saint Anne’s in Shanganagh is a white-walled International Style house that looks like it stepped out of a 1930s film set. Wave at it gently because it might think you’re trying to start a fashion trend. It’s probably just posing for the camera right now, don’t get used to it.

Dorney CourtGates/railings/walls · 153 yd

Explorer Tom Dorney Court gates are holding the fort after the main house got knocked off in 1984. They’re still showing off their estate grandeur on Corbawn Lane. Give them a little wave and pretend you live there for a sec.

Shankill Carnegie Free LibraryLibrary/archive · 192 yd

Explorer Tom Shankill Carnegie Free Library opened in 1912 and has a cruciform plan that looks like a cross made of books. Designed by Rudolph Butler, it was renovated in 1978. It’s a nice little spot to get lost in fiction.

Children's playground282 ydTom: I’m here to help · Computer-made picture. It does not show this playground.

Explorer Tom Children's playground in County Dublin is private, which means it's definitely hiding something big. Maybe a buried treasure chest? Knock politely and listen for gold!

Cross in ShanganaghCross · 408 ydTom: I’m here to help · Computer-made picture. It does not show this monument.

Explorer Tom Cross in Shanganagh. The base was once marked on maps as a 'Cromlech'. That’s a funny mislabel for a simple socket stone. I love when cartographers get confused by round rocks. It adds some mystery.

Dublin Mountains Way Trailhead SignVisitor information · 466 yd

Explorer Tom Dublin Mountains Way Trailhead Sign is pointing at nothing but fog and doubt. It’s the official starting point for getting lost with style. Make sure your shoes are laced before you trust it.

Monterey Cypress890 yd

Explorer Tom This Monterey Cypress in County Dublin is definitely listening to a fiddler who never stops playing. The music is stuck in its branches. Bring a friend who talks too much and let the place shut them up.

Shanganagh CastleCastle, unclassified · 1023 yd

Explorer Tom Shanganagh Castle (Unclassified) had two cannon shots pulled out before they rebuilt it. That’s all we know for sure, so I’m guessing the neighbours are still arguing about who fired first. Bring the dog, it'll have opinions.

Burnt mound in ShanganaghBurnt mound · 1173 ydTom: I’m here to help · Computer-made picture. It does not show this monument.

Explorer Tom Burnt mound in Shanganagh is hiding behind a new development, pretending it was never there at all. Its imaginary twin across the sea is definitely laughing at its poor attempt at camouflage. If anyone asks, Tom sent you.

Loughlinstown WoodsNature reserve · 1273 yd

Explorer Tom Loughlinstown Woods in County Dublin is near a Silver Tassie pub. Great for post-wood adventures. Just don't let the trees drink first; they get cranky. Take a sip for me.

St. James GateVisitor information · 1477 yd

Explorer Tom St. James Gate is famous for concrete and Diageo, apparently. I'm betting it's all about the stout now. Take a picture of the gate for me, don't be shy!
