Ballyowen CottageHouse · 422 ydExplorer Tom Ballyowen Cottage is way grander than its humble name suggests. Wave-like roofs and Ionic columns make it look like a fancy hotel on holiday. Find the giant legend here: he got stuck in the doorframe trying to show off.
Children's playground533 ydTom: I’m here to help · Computer-made picture. It does not show this playground.Explorer Tom Children's playground in County Dublin is being shy. Unknown access! Probably full of shiny buttons and mysterious tunnels. Take a photo if you see it!
Well in BallyowenWell · 642 ydTom: I’m here to help · Computer-made picture. It does not show this monument.Explorer Tom Well in Ballyowen was used for drinking water back in Joyce's day, but now its exact location is lost. It’s a ghost well that slipped out of the map. Bring a map, get lost anyway, that's the fun.
Old milestone782 ydTom: I’m here to help · Computer-made picture. It does not show this monument.Explorer Tom Old milestone in County Dublin is completely blank, like a mystery novel with no plot. I bet it’s just waiting for someone to carve their name into it in chalk.
MilestoneMilestone/milepost · 782 ydExplorer Tom Milestone in St. Edmondsbury is standing at a junction looking like it has seen some things. It used to be prominent, now it’s just street furniture with an attitude problem. If you see two pigeons fighting on top of it, that’s the love story going badly wrong again.
St Edmondsbury Gate LodgeGate lodge · 798 ydExplorer Tom St Edmondsbury Gate Lodge is elegant and part of an important estate, probably hearing the neighbours argue through the walls. It’s a simple gate lodge with big ego. Find the entrance and look up at it.
Kieran BradyCastle/fortified house · 838 ydExplorer Tom Rathfarnham Castle was built by Adam Loftus around 1583 and hasn't changed its mind about looking impressive since then. It's a landmark that refuses to fade into the background, even if it's been remodeled a few times. Pop by and tell it you admire its stubbornness.
Griffeen Valley WalkWalking route · 1.0 miExplorer Tom Griffeen Valley Walk in County Dublin has a river that merges into Vesey Park, which sounds like a fancy garden party gone wrong. Grab a photo of the water for me!
Giant Sequoia1.0 miExplorer Tom Giant Sequoia in County Dublin is having an existential crisis because it has an imaginary twin across the sea it’s never met. It’s huge, loud, and completely out of place here, like a giant in a small room. Look for the ghost, then pretend you didn't see anything weird.
Ginkgo1.1 miExplorer Tom Ginkgo in County Dublin would tell its younger self to stop trying so hard to look prehistoric. It’s a survivor, but it doesn’t need to brag about being older than dinosaurs every five minutes. Pretend you're a lost aristocrat, nobody will check your ID at the park gate.
Tandy's PlaygroundChildren's playground · 1.9 miTom: I’m here to help · Computer-made picture. It does not show this playground.Explorer Tom Tandy's Playground in County Dublin is likely named after someone who got tired of waiting. Access is unknown, so it could be abandoned or full of ghosts. Take a picture for me if you hear any giggles!
Grand Canal WayWalking route · 4.0 miExplorer Tom Grand Canal Way in County Dublin is pretending to be Kildare according to one cheeky map note. A little county peninsula poking through like a nosy neighbour. Tell me if it's still hiding!
