Explorer Tom Cairn. Excavations revealed six orthostats pushed outward by the weight of stones. It’s like a stone pillow case that burst because it was stuffed with too much history.
bridge757 ydExplorer Tom Bridge in Piperstown is a simple 1920 arch with one side missing its parapet, like it lost an arm in a fight. It sits there looking primitive and bold in the countryside.
farm house830 ydExplorer Tom Farm house in Piperstown is a humble cottage that has been growing into a proper farmstead over the years. It’s got barns stretching out to the east and a long history of use. Check out the buttresses on the stone barn for me!
Explorer Tom Saint Ann's Well in County Dublin is definitely playing hard to get, maybe even harder than my ex. A Facebook pic suggests it might be in Nottingham, which is confusing. Trust your nose, not the map!
Explorer Tom Saint Ann's Graveyard in County Dublin is ruins. Spooky! The caption mentions Mackinac, which is weird. Get a moody photo for me!

Explorer Tom The Dublin Mountains Way Hellfire & Massey spur is a bit dramatic for a walk, isn't it? It sounds like you might catch fire or meet a guy named Massey. Keep an eye out for actual hellfire, though I doubt it's there.
Explorer Tom Montpelier Hill is famous for the Hell Fire Club at dawn. The sun comes up over it in a mysterious way, so watch the light change and pretend you’re about to make a dangerous pact with a devil.

Ballymorefinn HillMountain / peak · 1.5 miExplorer Tom Ballymorefinn Hill in County Dublin overlooks a waterfall above Bohernabreena Reservoir. It’s a nice spot for a walk, as long as you don’t slip on the rocks and end up in the water like a clumsy tourist on holiday.
Explorer Tom St Columkilles Well: Old thorn trees surrounding it used to be covered in rags and ribbons! Imagine the colorful, tattered decorations swaying in the wind.
Noel Lemass MemorialMemorial · 2.0 miExplorer Tom Noel Lemass Memorial in County Dublin marks where a captain died in 1923 so the republic might live. That is very serious stuff! The inscription says his body was found on this spot. Stand there quietly for ten seconds to show some respect!
