This has worked in the Dublin and Meath threads - so why not here!!

Here's the rules, a poster posts a picture of Wexford, people guess until someone is right. The winner either posts a picture or forfeits and somebody else steps up and posts a picture.

You have to take the picture yourself (basically, don't take from websites). If it's a neighbourhood picture, take a picture that people can reasonably guess at. Not some back alley or some generic house. And make sure the picture takes in quite a bit (i.e. not a close-up of a bench or something) People just have to guess the neighbourhood, but for a city picture the winner has to name the street.

Please don't give the title away in the file name

This is a pretty easy starting one - I have some better ones on a disk back home.

It looks like the pub at Tenacre - I think it used to be called Greenacres - on the way between Bridgetown and Tacumshane

22-02-2008 4:33pm

jebuz · 22-02-2008 4:58pm

Nope, I'll give you a hint, not a mountain.

I've another one, even though its against the rules I'm going to post it anyway...

arseagon · 25-02-2008 5:19pm

I'd rather leave it where it is and stick a wireless mast on the top.

That one is.... Loftus Hall.... I promise I'll let someone else answer the next one.

purple'n'gold · 25-02-2008 5:29pm

25-02-2008 7:00pm

I don't have any suitable photos to post, so someone else have a go!

Murtinho · 26-02-2008 9:59am

Kudos to anyone who gets the name and location correct.

time to call zaraba a fecker!!!

Maybe there should be a time limit on photos? This one is obviously exceedingly hard, and could end up killing the thread. Any opinions?

05-03-2008 4:39pm

Sure - if after a couple of days no one has got it, then someone can post up another.

Technically, it's arseagan's turn as he got the Killurin one.

arseagon · 05-03-2008 6:33pm

Right a toughy for ye....

Seeing as it's so obscured I'll give a hint. A pub in enniscorthy.

Oh and the house of beermats isn't usually there.... I was just bored.

hamsterboy · 06-03-2008 8:18am

Houlohans? (prev. the Cotton Tree) by any chance?

jebuz · 06-03-2008 12:36pm

Colemans in market square?

The answer is:

The Shell House, Tykillen (On the banks of the slaney)

AFAIK, it was part of Tykillen Estate

hamsterboy · 06-03-2008 4:09pm

Seeing as we're doing pubs in the enniscorthy area....try this one

arseagon · 06-03-2008 4:23pm

Is it the bar in the IFA Centre?

hamsterboy · 06-03-2008 4:24pm

Nope, but you're on the right line of thinkin

hamsterboy · 06-03-2008 4:26pm

<hint> not exactly in the town, bit outside but still well known</hint>

06-03-2008 4:52pm

perhaps we could go back to more general photos rather then those of inside pubs?

hamsterboy · 06-03-2008 5:00pm

Prob a good idea dude. Twas the only pic I have with me of home ATM

. btw....answer = The Monageer Tavern. Pic taken New Years where I was imprisoned by the in(out)laws that night.
Post away guys

09-03-2008 4:30pm

Eh.. come on people! Get those camera phones out!

Another one based on the slaney, its an image I took for a website I made a couple of years back. What the castle called?

jebuz · 12-03-2008 12:46pm

Deeps castle?
