Children's playground189 ydComputer-made picture. It does not show this playground.Explorer Tom Another private Children's playground in County Dublin. They’re keeping secrets in there, I can feel it. Probably hiding a dragon under the slide. Try to get a peek and snap it.
Cathal Brugha BarracksHospital/infirmary · 379 ydExplorer Tom Cathal Brugha Barracks used to be a hospital before it became barracks. Built in 1810, it’s seen more action than most cinemas. Snap a photo of those terracotta ridges!
Battle of RathminesMajor battlefield · 702 ydExplorer Tom Battle of Rathmines in County Dublin is where the Royalists tried to attack Dublin but got a bit stuck on the hills. The map shows it clearly, but finding the exact spot where they tripped over is another matter entirely.
lock747 ydExplorer Tom Lock in County Dublin is doing heavy lifting on the Grand Canal. Built around 1790, it raises boats with some serious masonry muscle. Listen out for a creaking timber gate if you’re lucky!
Ranelagh Gardens PlaygroundChildren's playground · 799 ydComputer-made picture. It does not show this playground.Explorer Tom Ranelagh Gardens Playground in County Dublin is probably just a fancy way of saying ‘mud puddle’. The slides might be covered in invisible glitter from fairies. Shake it off and take a picture!
Paul SmithMemorial · 913 ydExplorer Tom Paul Smith wrote words and now sits beside the Grand Canal. It’s a complete memorial, which sounds expensive. He probably wrote about the view before the city swallowed it all. Read his stuff!
International Tailors, Pressers and Machinists UnionMemorial · 1184 ydExplorer Tom International Tailors, Pressers and Machinists Union memorial in County Dublin marks where Jewish workers set up shop. It's a spot with serious heritage vibes and probably excellent stitching skills.
Rathgar CastleCastle, unclassified · 1617 ydExplorer Tom Rathgar Castle once had walls so thick they held staircases inside, yet now only Beranger’s drawings remain to tell the tale.
IndicatedCathedral · 1.4 miExplorer Tom Cathedral. Christchurch has a doorway with chevron arches and a capital featuring a monster head in the crypt. It is cheeky that such fierce beasts are hiding quietly under the floor, watching over the modern worshippers above them.
Bigleaf Maple1.4 miExplorer Tom Bigleaf Maple in County Dublin is doing its best impression of a giant umbrella. The photo looks like it belongs in a rainforest, not here. Give it a wave for me!
Oriental plane1.5 miExplorer Tom Another Oriental plane in County Dublin, also pretending to be from Voltri. It’s having an identity crisis. Ask it if it misses the Mediterranean or just wants a tan.
Burning of the Custom HouseArmed conflict · 1.8 miExplorer Tom Burning of the Custom House in County Dublin turned a nice building into a fireball in 1921. The caption says it was burning on May 25th. Take a picture of your own burning toast for comparison, yeah?
