    To me this answer sums up the true spirit of the thread, totally wrong but a great answer.

    Can I just add Dufflecoat Fanny, that I hope you get it right the next time.

    Could we have a zoomed out image perhaps as the cryptic clues don't seem to be working for us?

    It's Monroe, Fethard, Co. Tipperary.

    Sorry for any confusion, I found the picture on my phone and the phone gave the location as Monroe.

    So what has 'breadmaker' and John Wayne got to do with Monroe:confused:.
    I can't claim this one as all I put up were Names and words in answer
    to the clues.
    So as punishment Rows Grower you have to put up again.:p

    You answered that in your own post, Elton John's hit Candle in the wind was about Marilyn Monroe real name Norma Jean Baker, just now realised that I f8cked up with the John Wayne clue his real name was Marion not Marilyn.
