WoodfieldRectory/glebe/vicarage/curate's house · 138 ydExplorer Tom Woodfield is a rectory built in eighteen seventy-seven with money from a public loan act. It’s got double gables and sits on an L-shape plan that maximises the scenic views over rolling grounds.
Saint Matthias' Church (Killiney-Ballybrack)Church/chapel · 177 ydExplorer Tom Saint Matthias' Church in Loughlinstown, County Dublin is made of white granite found right there on the spot. It’s a bit showy with that cruciform plan. Take a picture for me if you pass!
Explorer Tom Michael Davitt in County Dublin has his own memorial here, too. The photos show him looking serious, which fits a historical figure. Stand by his monument and imagine what he'd say to you today!
Explorer Tom Martello Tower in Killiney. Located just under a quarter of a mile inland, this tower is nestled in an urbanized area of housing. It has been fully restored, so it looks less like a relic and more like a very serious garden ornament.
Explorer Tom Funeral Path sounds like a route taken by very tired ghosts. I bet it goes straight to the afterlife or the nearest chip shop. Walk it quietly so you don’t scare the mourners.
Explorer Tom Roche's Hill in County Dublin might be related to a Sussex hill from 1839. That is a long way to get lost. Do not ask me how.
Explorer Tom Killiney Beach in County Dublin boasts views of Bray Head. It’s showing off its scenery. Remind it that a beach is for swimming, not just sitting around admiring other hills from afar.
Explorer Tom Ayesha Castle is definitely making itself up a bit. The picture caption calls it Manderley Castle, which sounds way fancier than Ayesha. I bet it’s pretending to be something else to impress the locals!
Explorer Tom Ballybrack Dolmen is a stone table set for dinner by giants who forgot to eat. The caption says it’s there, but finding it feels like searching for a needle in a haystack of hills.
Explorer Tom Killiney Hill has an obelisk right on top of it. It’s basically a giant finger pointing at the sky, so stand next to it and take a selfie that makes you look taller than you actually are.
White Rock, Killiney BeachBeach / strand · 1.0 miExplorer Tom White Rock, Killiney Beach in County Dublin is accessed by 100 steps, which is basically a cardio workout disguised as a beach trip. The nudists are on the left, so just keep your eyes forward and try not to make eye contact unless you're ready.
Explorer Tom Dalkey Hill has been photographed by Irishpunktom back in 2004. It’s probably still posing for selfies today, so take a quick snap and send it to me before the light fades out completely.
