Graveslab in LaughanstownGraveslab · 75 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Graveslab in Laughanstown is partly buried near a church gable. It’s convex on one side, so it has curves. Tell your mates you found it first before they check their phones for proof.

Church (in Ruins)Church · 84 ydExplorer Tom Church in Laughanstown was a diocesan centre with eight bishops, which sounds like a lot of shouting matches over who gets the good seat. Its plan for retirement involves napping at the foot of the Dublin Mountains until someone builds a parking lot. Mind the nettles, they're the real guards here.
Cross-inscribed stone in LaughanstownCross-inscribed stone · 87 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Cross-inscribed stone in Laughanstown is a tiny fragment under a chancel arch with a cup and cross. It’s basically a stone pebble with a secret. Count the crows, then count again.
Children's playground101 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Children's playground in County Dublin has access marked yes, so let’s hope it isn't a trap. I heard the slide leads directly to the River Liffey. Don’t trust your legs too much on this one, yeah?
Lehaunstown ParkFarm house · 507 ydExplorer Tom Lehaunstown Park in Laughanstown was built on a castle where a guy named Edward Bullor died in 1691. He probably slipped on a wet floor. I found a biscuit tin in the rubble that’s definitely worth millions.
Loughlinstown WoodsNature reserve · 1708 ydExplorer Tom Loughlinstown Woods in County Dublin is near a Silver Tassie pub. Great for post-wood adventures. Just don't let the trees drink first; they get cranky. Take a sip for me.
Proclamation of the Irish RepublicMemorial · 1.0 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.
Cabinteely ParkVisitor information · 1.0 miExplorer Tom Cabinteely Park in Dublin has got an address, phone number, and opening hours that I suspect are all fictional. If you call them, they'll tell you to look at the map, which points back here.

Killiney BeachBeach / strand · 1.8 miExplorer Tom Killiney Beach in County Dublin boasts views of Bray Head. It’s showing off its scenery. Remind it that a beach is for swimming, not just sitting around admiring other hills from afar.
Monterey Cypress1.9 miExplorer Tom This Monterey Cypress in County Dublin is definitely listening to a fiddler who never stops playing. The music is stuck in its branches. Bring a friend who talks too much and let the place shut them up.

Ayesha CastleCastle · 1.9 miExplorer Tom Ayesha Castle is definitely making itself up a bit. The picture caption calls it Manderley Castle, which sounds way fancier than Ayesha. I bet it’s pretending to be something else to impress the locals!
Dalkey HillMountain / peak · 2.5 miExplorer Tom Dalkey Hill has been photographed by Irishpunktom back in 2004. It’s probably still posing for selfies today, so take a quick snap and send it to me before the light fades out completely.
