Nice to see the posh folks of Rathmichael have named their houses on Google Maps. Check one of them.
Free and optimised for the iPhone 5, Google Maps returns to iOS:
The relaunched service provides more standard features such as search, voice guided directions, live traffic, and public transportation directions, as well as an enhanced Street View feature that gives the user access to the inside of more than 100,000 businesses and 360-degree panoramas from around the globe.

You may recall our post a few hours ago about the first car rally in Ireland: the Gordon Bennett Race of 1903.

Geoff Hamilton has located Naas (top) and Whites Castle, Athy (above).
Nice.
Earlier: Ireland’s First car Rally, 1902.

Previously: Where’s Longford Gone?
The town is peculiarly referred to as ‘Prospect Wood.’ …Quite how the employees of Google Maps got the impression this town went by the name of a decade-old estate on the edge of the town is unknown at this stage.
Anyone?
Longford Snubbed By Google Maps (Longford Leader)
And what about Mallow?
Damien writes;
Have a look at Mallow. On the map it shows up as ‘Castlepark’ – which incidentally is just a 10 year old estate also.
Hmm.

Prepare yourself with searchable Google Maps of your town or city showing the location of cemeteries, grocery stores, police stations, military bases and everything else you’ll need to survive the relentless onslaught of the undead.
