No

No - but in the right area.

Yes, but you are a bit vague - name the street!

again the street name escapes me but 4 is just off the north circular road

Yup - it is the NCR at the junction with Fitzgibbon Street. Well done!

5 is very close to gardiner street?

Nowhere near it!

Yes, no.5 is Mayor Street Upper which I inadvertantly included in pic no. 2!

You're so close I'll have to give it to you. It's New Wapping Street.






OK - who's next!

Careful.

Wapping Street and New Wapping Street are different parallel streets. Wapping Street was made private when some of the railway yards were build and New Wapping Street was built as a replacement.

They are named for Wapping, not New Wapping.

Is that part of Blackrock College?

the boss of me

No , not Blackrock College. Copacetic is closest it is D.4 , but not the Merrion Rd. Also another clue is that a famous film director has a house on this rd.



To keep the game moving if it's not gone by 6pm today I'll post the answer,ok ?

Nice one Wshbone specifically the junction of Eastmoreland Pl and St Marys Rd,. btw the film director is Jim Sheridan.

As there aren't any pics outstanding, and I haven't posted one in a bit, here's one.

the boss of me

Is that the rear view of this ??

Victor

No.

mikemac

Bendibus, is that the back of the Excise Bar in the IFSC?

BendiBus

To save any more similar guesses it's not the back of ANY of the IFSC bars!
