    Church Reptile= Chapelizod (Chapel+Lizard)
    A Breed of sheep =Marino
    Get out of the Way
    Single Men don't Run = Bachelor's Walk
    Big Cat's Ville
    Honest Opinion
    Demolish Leo=Knock Lyon
    Assassinate the leading Actor
    A rodent before the pits
    Chimes Demise
    not a warm explosive
    Did the Professor Ease Off
    a very dark boulder
    Dispose of this woman
    A Gravely Paste

    Bright corridor has already been done - Whitehall

    Priests village could be Abbotstown and Monkstown(but strickly speaking, an abbot/monk is not really a priest).
