Prosperous Parish Hall

Explorer Tom Factory in Curryhills would survive a zombie attack by hiding under its long, low roof and pretending to be a bench. It’s been quiet since the textile days, but it’s definitely watching you with stone eyes. Dare you to say hello out loud without flinching.

Explorer Tom Water pump in Curryhills has a serious feud with the rain because it hates getting wet again. It’s an early cast-iron example that hasn’t moved since before mains water was a thing. The whole area used this for clean water, so respect the pump or don’t drink. Bring your own legend, I've run out of stories about thirst.

Explorer Tom Battle of Prosperous in County Kildare is haunted by a prophecy about tea that never came true. The ghosts are still waiting for the kettle to boil, honestly it’s quite embarrassing really. Linger, it's not going anywhere and neither should you.

Explorer Tom Bullán in Clane is cemented onto a stream wall like it’s posing for a selfie. If it were at a wedding, it would be the uncle who spills wine. Go before the tourists find out.

Explorer Tom Donadea Castle would order fish and chips with extra ketchup at any chipper. It’s a Birmingham manor that ended up in a forest park somewhere in Kildare. A good place to forget your phone for ten minutes.
