Which side?

Ill give a hint... its heading towards the end of a former main road no longer used since the bypass was developed.

dazftw · 26-10-2009 3:01am

Its on the kilkenny side? Is it by the garage before the railway crossing?

seanybiker · 26-10-2009 4:44pm

or the little house just before granny(or whatever its called) castle.

seanybiker · 26-10-2009 7:25pm

Eh, no idea where you refer to... Is it that castle on the main Limerick Road? What little house?

Its not in the Kilkenny direction. It could be considered to be in the Waterford direction - the photograph was partly taken facing Waterford anyway.

Sully, are we done with your riddle?

Have no clue where could this pic be taken from.

Poor Uncle Tom · 28-12-2009 12:58pm

Bump...:)

Sully, don't you think it's about time for an answer...?

Sully · 28-12-2009 1:15pm

Forgot about this thread.

It was taken from the old Waterford -> Limerick Road thats now closed. It was taken on the Limerick side on the old stretch of road (they built a newer road that goes under the overpass beside this section) besides the last house on the right side.

Those of you there during development would have seen the road split to the right (old road) towards a few houses and then stop at a temp fence) and the left split continued on towards Waterford, that pub/market place. Its private access only now.

jaysus havent been down that way in while. The house that the car is facing at has a plaque by the front door, some doctor used to live there going by the inscription. The other picture is (I think) the place beside the main residancy, not sure if there is an inscription on that one or not.

Whats the story?
