Ballycorus Lead WorksWorker's house · 740 ydExplorer Tom Ballycorus Lead Works is a manager's house that smells like lead and old money, designed by Charles Geoghegan who knew exactly what he was doing in 1862. It's got some serious industrial swagger.
Lehaunstown ParkFarm house · 798 ydExplorer Tom Lehaunstown Park in Laughanstown is playing hard to get, hiding behind a porch built by an earl who vanished in 1691. Snap it for me before the ghosts do their own thing.
Children's playground985 ydComputer-made picture. It does not show this playground.Explorer Tom Another Children's playground in County Dublin. I hear this one has a slide that goes on forever if you don’t stop laughing. The local kids say it leads to the moon. Go find out if it’s true, yeah?
Puck's CastleCastle · 1151 ydExplorer Tom Puck's Castle in County Dublin sounds like something from a fairy tale, which fits perfectly since we're in Ireland. It's in Shankill, so if you see any mischievous sprites, just nod at them politely and move on.

Carrickgollogan HillMountain / peak · 1.5 miExplorer Tom Carrickgollogan Hill is showing off its summit to everyone. It’s just sitting there in County Dublin looking smug, so grab a photo for me if you get close enough to see it properly.
Proclamation of the Irish RepublicMemorial · 1.6 miExplorer Tom Proclamation of the Irish Republic is a big deal in County Dublin. It’s a memorial to history changing. The picture looks nice from a distance. Get closer and listen to the echoes of old speeches.

Foxrock Village Heritage MapVisitor information · 2.1 miExplorer Tom Foxrock Village Heritage Map is trying to tell me about history but it’s just a piece of paper on a pole. It probably lies about the past. Read it upside down if you dare.
