PICS - Guess the Waterford Location

abouttobebanned · 2009-08-12 09:18:11

Basic rule of the game - We just throw up some cryptic pics or ones from strange angles, and we must then try and guess where in Waterford (city preferably) they were taken. This first one is actually not as difficult as you may first think.

Hi part of diaspora here, love the board for city. these pics are great. Some however very sad to see the state of some buildings.

The hanover building to me is the one beside Dennys old slaughterhouse which is that bit of the hyper car park that accesses out to Philip st.

Now theres a smell to remember!
