I'm stumped!

admiralofthefleet

rathfarnham main street?

Gaspode

The flag makes me think of the environs of Croke park, so I'll throw in a guess here - Fitzgibbon Street

I'm thinking it's the building beside St. Andrews church on Pearse Street...

Is that church not on Westland Row?

That's the Roman Catholic church. The one on Pearse St. was a C of I one but is now a community resource centre.

To the best of my knowledge, being a local, that was never a church. It was a school though.

It was a church, hence the graves in the grounds... are you thinking of the red brick building on the right as you head from town? The church is on the left, under the railway bridge... I think Pavee Point had their HQ there at some stage, maybe they still have,

Ah i get you know, yeah i thought you were talking about what is now St Andrews Resource centre. The one you are talking about was a Church, it's still is actually. It's a Born Again church and it's called St Marks not St Andrews and the building beside it is not the building in the picture.

^^ Mea Culpa... You are right; St. Marks it is!! It was me getting the names mixed up!! Thanks for the reminder...

It's North Inner City alright so I guess to that extent you're not a million miles away.

dclifford

Bendibus, Is it in Sean McDermott street? The Simon Community centre, it was a trade union hall.

Spot on dclifford!

Wishbone Ash

Well done dclifford! You're next.

Anto McC

I'd love to put a few pictures up myself but i don't even own a camera. I might get a lend of my Da's tomorrow and go walkabout.

Wishbone Ash

Just to keep the thread warm!





(Which LUAS stop)

Anto McC

Third one is the Luas stop at James' Hospital, i know the second for sure but can't place it at the moment but it will come to me eventually. Is the first one in Trinity College?

Lady

lol think the guy in the dressing gown gives the bottom picture away. Although wheter it is St. James or Tallaght Hospital I do not know.

Middle one is Herbert street I think, Looks familiar.

Top one I havn't a notion but looksamazing, very unusual.
Nice work wishbone.

That was quick - well done (I left the girl in the dressing gown as a clue!)

Herbert street it is, at least according to the website of the estate agents selling it!
