Hi Mel, et al on this list, You can use Google Maps to see most of Ireland from ground level in great detail. Just type in the townland, city, etc. that you're interested in, e.g. Drumgoose. G-Maps will give you a few choices. Select one & when it has completed loading, grab the little golden man above the zoom slider, drag him over the map & release him on any roadway that has been highlighted in blue. After the ground-level view loads, you can turn the view 360, zoom to particular points of interest, hop along the road, etc. with your pointer. It's astonishing to me how many tiny by-ways in Ireland are available in this way. If you do this in Google Earth and use the "Show Historical Imagery" feature, you can see how things have changed over time. I found that 2 houses on a particular plot that I'm interested in in Drumdreeny were built between 2006 and 2010. Have fun with it.
