    Yep! Well that pic is actually above Spar, Dame St. but it's the same building.

    Is it the O'Brien Institute - DFB training centre (and formerly an orphanage)?

    It isn't. I've kept it inside the canal ring: I'm not a monster.

    It seems it was the Kildare Street Club: http://maps.osi.ie/publicviewer/#V1,716244,733834,7,9

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benjamin_Woodward
    Woodward collaborated in particular with the O'Shea brothers. James and John O'Shea were stone carvers from County Cork. They, along with London sculptors, carved the abundant decorative stonework at Trinity, showing owls, lizards, cats and monkeys, as well as other flora and fauna. Later the O'Sheas carved stonework at the Kildare Street Club, including the famous window piece showing the club members as monkeys playing billiards. Some stories tell of the O'Sheas getting into trouble and possibly even being sacked for carving cats or monkeys at the Oxford University Museum.

    Nice one Victor, you are correct. The view is from College Park, across the cricket pitch.

    To be fair it doesn't restrict it to city in the OP.
