    Yes Wish...your on a roll now :)

    the boss of me...6 and 7 are not near your answers but as a hint 5 is!

    2nd hint...Gavin guessed no.2 as Clyde lane....this is near one of the other pics!

    EDIT: the boss reminds me...no.6 may be a bit unfair due to similarity in housing to the likes of Ringsend(it's not there) , look at end of road in pic, it leads somewhere Recreational.

    No Gav, wrong pic and wrong street.

    No. 6 is near Clyde lane, it's a few streets away but within walking distance

    Hey Hey what's going on here, what are you trying to say about Ringsend. It couldn't possible be Ringsend because it leads somewhere nice..... Shame on you Gurramok, however I agree with you in principle only but you can't go around saying it, 'cos I'm sure there is a road in Ringsend long enough for you to be able to get out of Ringsend:D

    Hey, didn't mean it that way, you picked me up wrong on words!

    I meant it leads to somewhere nice as in recreation area. The buildings are the same as in Ringsend, nothing to do with what an area is like!

    I've got Ringsend blood in me which i've stated before on boards and proud of that. I'll edit the comment as it can be picked up wrong and open can of worms :D


  • Registered Users Posts: 706 ✭✭✭the boss of me

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13,992 ✭✭✭✭gurramok


    5 as i hinted is in Ringsend and near pic no. 1

    6 is near Clyde Lane off Herbert Park(that recreational area i mentioned!)

    I'm a bit puzzled!

    St Broc's Cottages and Pembroke Cottages couldn't really be described as "extremely close". One is off the Donnybrook Road near Wesley RFC and the other is off York Road in Ringsend! :confused:

    BTW - congratulations on getting it Gavin. :)


  • Registered Users Posts: 17,965 ✭✭✭✭Gavin "shels"


    Don't they not both run parallel to each other Wish?


  • Registered Users Posts: 24,993 ✭✭✭✭Wishbone Ash

    Oops, sorry my mistake - they do. :o

    There's another Pembroke Cottages in Ringsend. ;)

    I think pic number 3 above is quite close to Hanlon's corner as you're heading into town from the Navan Road area. Haven't a breeze of its name though.

    Either that or it's the one beside Dalymount.

    I'm probably way off.
