    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).


    :mad: Never knew their was a car park there. The amount of times I've stood at the bus stop there and nevered noticed it.:mad:

    It's has already been identified and confirmed as Mespil Road!

    (Mespil Road can also be seen on the Bord Gais sign).

    No 4 is one of the banks on College Green/Dame St, think it's permanent TSB or something like that.

    Do you mean physically or politically? If it's politically, former British post boxes are everywhere - VR, ER, and GR!

    No. 3 is Blackpitts, just across from Scholars Pub.
    No. 5 is Dean St, just opposite the funeral home.
    No. 6 is Braithwaite St not sure if it's that road for definite.
    No. 7 is Georges St/Aungier St, not really sure were each road finishes and starts.
    No. 10 is Ardee St.

    I'd agree with Gavin , Braithwaite St.

    Is no 9 Capel St ?

    There's a big clue in the first pic, the one with the tree. A bit like the clue I left in my Mespil Rd pic ;)

    I saw a guy taking photos at the top of Bridgefoot St this afternoon, don't suppose that was you Wisher, was it ?

    8. No.8 is a bit unfair I suppose but I included it because it is the most fabulously named road in Dublin! :D (It's been done a few times before ;))

    I'm afraid not - it was taken a few months ago!

    It's weird all the same - anytime I see someone taking a pic (who are obviously not tourists) I'm thinking to myself is that a regular from the Dublin Picture Game!
