    The Burren
    Parts of Walkintown, there's an industrial area on a hill that extends into an, almost post-apocalyptic industrial wasteland of car lots and factories.
    Bits of Wicklow but nothing too out of the ordinary, unfortunately, though some of the churches, i.e. St. Fergal's have a strangely unique architecture

    When Angela's Ashes came out the description of Limerick was -
