    Is Langrishe Place the narrow street that has some really attractive tall red bricks that were in very poor condition a couple of years back?

    Sorry. πŸ™ But I saw only a guess at it being in Hill St, which is about a 1/4th of a mile away from Langrishe Place. πŸ™‚

    As I remember Langrishe Place it had 2 story houses on both sides. If you go into Summerhill from Parnell St it would be the first turn on the left.

    At least thats how I remember it. As a kid, nearly 50 years ago, my pals and I used to race our ‘trollies’ down the hill of Langrishe Place and into Summerhill. πŸ™‚

    Just to remain on topic I’ll post a pic very soon. πŸ˜‰ I like this topic. πŸ™‚

    Nope, though I see where you’re coming from.
    A certain something peeking through the balustrade may give it away…

    Grrr … Ive been wrecking my head trying to figure out that grid-looking yoke in the background… Tis doing my head in…Maybe its not in Dublin at all but in Hedrek City πŸ˜€

    Anyway throwing my toss at E,what say the Four Courts – left corner of the central block?

    Is C the church on the quays, next to Bank of Ireland (I think) with an office building in Smithfield behind it. Hutton put it into my head by mentioning the grid thing behind it.

    Nope – sorry jdivision πŸ™

    I thought this was the easiest of all! Part of the image is one of the most iconic elements of architecture in the city!

    (A certain contrbutor’s continued abstinence on this image is much obliged ;))

    Sorry hutton, E is not the Four Courts, though certainly along those lines…

    I think C is the the south east corner of the the Custom House with part of Busaras in the background?

    Is E Bank of Ireland on College Green?
