Quare Fellow, The

Looking from the bottom of Westland Row station ramp, as was, located by Andrew and David Brennan with a long-gone cast iron gatepost at the entrance to a vehicle ramp into the station

The same location where John Larkin explains that the ramp is now long gone, replaced by an extension of Trinity College

John Larkin identifies the view as facing north at the junction of Pearse Street and Lombard Street, in Dublin 2, 53.34411N, 6.24929W.

John provides the comparison.

Pat Cleary updates the record with this shot of the corner.

Across the Liffey stands Custom House Quay in Dublin 1 with the Custom House to the left. The iconic building appears in ‘The Big Gamble’, ‘Flight of the Doves’, 'Taffin', 'Girl with Green Eyes' and ‘Shake Hands with the Devil’.

Custom House, Dublin. North side River Liffey. Andrew and David strike again.

Custom House on Custom Quay. The Dynamic Duo.

Weren't we just here with the "Girl With Green Eyes"?

River Liffey from O'Connell Bridge. Looking West. David and Andrew.

Bachelor's Walk. Green pub is building seen on extreme right of qf003b. David and Andrew.

O'Connell Bridge and Street. David and Andrew Brennan.

Looking north from O'Connell Bridge along O'Connell Street towards Nelson's Pillar, a view seen in many productions including '30 is a Dangerous Age, Cynthia', 'Johnny Nobody', 'The March Hare', 'I See a Dark Stranger', 'Rooney', 'Dead Man's Evidence' and 'Johnny Nobody'.

O'Connell Street. Nelson's Pillar replaced with Millenium Spire. The Brennan Boys.

Main Street, Dublin.

O'Connell Street. Pillared building is 'Smiles Dental Spa'. Mrs Brennan's lads.

This looks like Beggar's Bush Barracks to John Larkin, and not Kilmainham Gaol (as we know it here in Dublin). I'll check this out soon. Richard Callanan says: I can confirm this is Beggars Bush Barracks on Haddington Road, Dublin. The shot is taken from outside the main gate looking NW. The two windows visible in the building behind the wall in the first frame were my bedroom 1945-62! That room was later used as the Abbey Green Room in the film 'The Young Cassidy' I'll try to get photos on my next visit to Dublin. The buildings are modernised and privatised but the architecture from about 1815 remains basically intact. Thanks for the confirmation, Richard.

Beggars Bush, Dublin, A & D B. Spot on.

The gates to Beggars Bush Barracks can also be seen in 'The Vengeance of Fu Manchu'.

From David and Andrew. Beggars Bush. Former British Army Garrison built 1827.

This looks seriously like Little Venice where "Georgy Girl" was made. Yes it is Little Venice by Maida Vale. I grew up there and am 100% certain, Aidan McManus.

Confirmation from Peter that this is the Maida Vale end of Blomfield Street in W9. Credit also goes to Raul who put Peter right and, like Aidan McManus, also lived in the area.

Is this real, or a set?

29 Clanbrassil Street, Harold's Cross, Dublin. Andrew & David Brennan

Sure, a grand bit of Oud Dublin. But which old bit?

Canalside. Anything left here?

Photo, David Brennan, submitted by Andrew Brennan. Royal Canal (lock #5) by Mountjoy Prison, North Circular Road, Phibsborough, Dublin

Andrew Brennan tells us; Mountjoy Prison from the Royal Canal, Phibsborough, Dublin. Photo by David Brennan. Mountjoy is the actual setting for Brendan Behan's play. Film used "open to the public" Kilmainham Jail for interiors and Beggars Bush for exteriors. Mountjoy accessible by failing to pay parking tickets.

Found by Aidan McManus and confirmed by Steve Randall, this is the view west along the Paddington Branch of the Grand Union Canal from Westbourne Terrace Road Bridge in Little Venice on the W2 / W9 border.

Shamrock Hall reads the sign . . . a location found by Pat Cleary to be situated on the corner of Quinsborough Road and Strand Road at Bray in County Wicklow, just down from the railway station.

In Pat's comparison, the covered outdoor area conceals the pillars that survive, albeit without the entrance doors.

Shot 007, again, and nothing to do with Bond, James Bond.

29 Clanbrassil Street, again, the Brennan Bros.

Mmmmmmmm

Other side of the road. Clanbrassil Street, Harold's Cross, Dublin (pub is number 35). David and Andrew.

Part of the River Liffey montage seen on Patrick McGoohan's arrival in Dublin near the beginning. Joseph O'Dowd points out that, across the river stands the gasometer on Sir John Rogerson's Quay. The gasometer appears in 'Ulysses', 'The Face of Fu Manchu', 'Tim Driscoll's Donkey' and 'The Big Gamble' while with this stretch of the Liffey opens 1958's 'Rooney'.

Pat Cleary tells us that the foreground Talbot Memorial Bridge was opened in 1978 and, seen in the distance, the Tall Ship is a replica of the Jeanie Johnston that carried thousands of Irish emigrants to North America during the Great Famine in the 19th century. A very popular tourist attraction.

Another part of the montage. The Four Courts on Inn's Quay, Dublin. David Brennan advises that the building was named on its completion in 1796 for comprising the courts of Chancery, Exchequer, King's Bench and Common Pleas. The iconic building can also be seen in 'Shake Hands With the Devil', 'Dublin Nightmare', 'Another Shore', 'The General', 'Johnny Nobody' and 'Rooney'.

...it currently houses Ireland's Supreme Court, High Court and the Dublin Circuit Court. A fourth branch, the Central Criminal Court, moved to its own custom-built home in 2010. Andrew Brennan. Photo by David Brennan.

"Holy Healey" (Hilton Edwards) inspects the prison. Mountjoy Jail in the play, the movie's interiors were filmed in... Andrew Brennan
