Advance HearingShop/retail outlet · 50 ydExplorer Tom Advance Hearing in County Dublin has been a shop for ages, but who knows what it sells now? Rebuilt in the 40s after the old stuff got knocked down, it’s still standing proud by the Liffey. Take a peek at that granite cornice!
Carroll's Irish GiftsHouse · 53 ydExplorer Tom Carroll's Irish Gifts on Westmoreland Street was part of a unified terrace designed by Henry Aaron Baker. It’s been a shop since around 1800, so if you’re buying gifts, just remember it’s got some serious architectural history behind it.

It does not show this monument.Explorer Tom Dublin’s ecclesiastical site is hiding under a bank, but they found a cesspit which is not exactly a romantic discovery.

Daniel O'ConnellMonument · 182 ydExplorer Tom Daniel O'Connell in County Dublin is still yelling at the sky about unity. I’d wave back, but he looks a bit grumpy today, wouldn't you?

Padraig Sheahan MemorialMemorial · 232 ydExplorer Tom Padraig Sheahan Memorial honours a brave cop who died in the sewers. That’s not exactly a fancy memorial spot, is it? He saved guys from gas. Respect the bravery, mind the stench.

Bigleaf Maple325 ydExplorer Tom Bigleaf Maple in County Dublin is doing its best impression of a confused tourist from America. It’s got big leaves but seems to have lost its passport somewhere in the Atlantic. Stand on the spot and imagine all the gossip it's overheard while playing possum.
St Winifred's WellMemorial · 359 ydExplorer Tom St Winifred's Well in County Dublin is dripping with mystery. Built in the 1700s, it might be dry or full of frogs. Take a picture for me!
General Post OfficeHeritage attraction · 373 ydExplorer Tom General Post Office in County Dublin is the big heritage building everyone knows about. It’s where all the history happened, so it’s probably full of people taking selfies and pretending they understand the 1916 rebellion.
Oriental plane428 ydExplorer Tom This Oriental plane in County Dublin keeps getting wind in the hair because it’s too showy. Sit on a wall near it and pretend you’re in a painting that costs more than your rent.
Burning of the Custom HouseArmed conflict · 577 ydExplorer Tom Burning of the Custom House in County Dublin was a bargain gone wrong with fire involved. It looks dramatic from a distance, which is good for photos. Stand back, squint, and it looks like a castle.
