You're in the correct area - go again!

Yes. (Dominick Lane to be precise).

Here's a wider image of the junction of Parnell Street and Kings Inns Street showing the location of the plaque in memory of those who died in the awful Noyeks factory fire in 1972.



Some of you appear to confuse Parnell Street and Ryders Row. Parnell Street runs straight through to Capel Street (along by the Sinn Fein office). The street that curves towards Loftus Lane is 'Ryders Row'.

WA - that must have been one hell of a night out you and the Mrs had

7. Arbour hill?. 1st left off Arbour Hill when coming from stoneybatter and then down at the end of the cul de sac? (I think it's still called Arbour hill as I've often looked for a seperate road sign but have never seen one for that cul de sac).

The night out and the 'refreshments' after the funeral the next day! A ridiculous amount of Guinness consumed!

Heehee 8 and 9 show the same building.

I was going to guess 5 was on Clarance Mangan Road, but migh it be The Castle Inn (is that now the Bull & Castle?)

bongoboy

No. 4 - street just off Cooke ST.
No 7 Synge Place, street runs onto Harrington ST?

It must have been posted by someone else as I hadn't ventured around there until recently or you may be confusing it with similar arches.

6. South Richmond Street, D2.

Well done.

8. Ship Street Little

Yes (The Chief State Solicitor's Offices)

Well done - The Bull and Castle in Christchurch Place.

Well spotted bongoboy! It's the junction of Cook Street/St Michael's Close/Winetavern Street/St Michael's Hill.

Seriously impressive - well done.

Its a closed off yard and laneway from Ross Road to Werburgh Street - I don't have a name for it.

Bit more precise Victor?

I suspect the Garda Station, but didn't particularly want to say it out loud, not wanting to get you done for breaching the Official Secrets Act.

Wishbone Ash

Mixing up the quotes Victor?

(For No. 10 presumably). It's Ross Road. (A piece of wasteground).

(No. 2 presumably?) Taken from Great Ship Street into a castle yard.

Gavin, when you're there, will you clarify something for me. The hairdressers in no. 6 - is it on Richmond Street South or the little street that branches off from Richmond Street proper (Richmond Villas?).

Wishbone Ash

One pic remaining!
