post box386 ydExplorer Tom Post box in County Dublin has the insignia of Edward VII on it. It was installed around 1905 and is made by McDowall Steven & Co. Ltd. It looks like it’s been waiting for a royal visit that never came.
Church of Our Lady of MercyChurch/chapel · 404 ydExplorer Tom Church of Our Lady of Mercy in County Dublin is a big concrete block from 1968. It looks like it was designed by a man who really hated curves and loved shouting about geometry.
St. Mary's Holy Faith ConventConvent/nunnery · 455 ydExplorer Tom St. Mary's Holy Faith Convent on St. Brigid's Road is a U-plan limestone and brick building from the 1920s that looks like it’s guarding its secrets. Take a pic of the breakfront for me, it’s got some nice pedimenting going on!
milestone/milepost657 ydExplorer Tom Milestone on Malahide Road says you’re three miles from the GPO, which helps if you’re lost or drunk. It’s got a cast-iron plate that looks very official and important. Take a picture of it so you can prove you walked this far!
St. Brendan's PresbyterySchool · 710 ydExplorer Tom St. Brendan's Presbytery was actually a school before it got its religious upgrade. It’s got a slightly projecting south bay that looks like it’s leaning in to whisper secrets about Coolock parish history.

Battle of ClontarfMajor battlefield · 1.3 miExplorer Tom Battle of Clontarf in County Dublin is where Brian Boru and the Vikings had their big noisy argument over a thousand years ago. The ground probably still remembers who kicked whom, so step gently or you’ll wake them up.
Clontarf Castle HotelVisitor information · 1.3 miExplorer Tom Clontarf Castle Hotel has been around since 1936, so it's seen better days and definitely worse weather. The picture shows it looking a bit tired, so maybe the ghost of the original owner is just napping in the lobby.
London Plane1.4 miExplorer Tom Another London Plane in County Dublin, still dropping its fuzzy bits. It's giving everyone allergies and a headache. Probably plotting against the pedestrians again.
St. Anns WellHoly well · 1.7 miExplorer Tom St. Anns Well in County Dublin sits at the base of a ridge in St. Anne's Park. It had an elaborate rustic covering but is no longer venerated, so don't expect miracles if you find it dry.
Killing of David ByrneMurder · 1.7 miExplorer Tom Killing of David Byrne in County Dublin is near the Regency Airport Hotel, which sounds very fancy. The death happened close to a main route. Take a pic of the hotel and pretend you’re checking in for good.
