Well spotted return guide - probably the most difficult pic out of the ten.

Wishbone Ash · 22-02-2008 3:42pm

2 to go!

I'm very surprised that no. 4 has lasted so long - I thought it would be first to go!

I'll widen no. 2 after a while if it's still there.

2.

4.

Gavin "shels" · 22-02-2008 5:46pm

No.4 isn't the park on Harcourt St?

No.2 is on Georges St?

Afraid not x 2 Gavin.

No. 4 is in your neck of the woods!

Here's a wider image of no. 2 (I can't go further down for obvious reasons!).

Yeowwwwwwwww.:D

No.2 isn't Baggot St?

Gavin "shels" · 22-02-2008 7:14pm

No 2. Is Parliament St. Scratch out the last guess.;)

Jesus, well done Gavin!

House of Astrology on Parliament street.

Did you leg it around all the Spar Shops in Dublin?

You're going to give yourself a kicking when no. 4 is revealed. It's visible from a major traffic artery through Dublin 8 (not the angle in the pic though).

In no 4 Cork St Wisher ? I think the apts in the background look familiar...

The picture was taken from New Row South but the Church ruins are also visible from The Coombe and St Luke's Avenue.

Well done!

Is no.4 The church in St. Kevin's graveyard? Don't know the name of the street..Camden Row?

Sorry guys, haven't been online much the last few days and the day I was on, the connection to boards was very slow.

Cheers Wisher , unfortunately it wasn't the old church I recognised , it was the manky looking apt behind it

@Victor Are those 3 pics outstanding and if so , can you post some clues ?

God be with the days when Cork St ended at Ryan's Pub.
No wonder I couldn't figure that one out.

I think it still ends in the same place. The new bit is St Luke's Avenue.
