20, Main Street, Howth.
Untouched by the 21st century as far as conveniences for even the basic human decencies are concerned. Although, it is still habitable judging by the bed of rags, fag ends and bottles that used to adorn one corner.

But to my relief,

Part of a half-mile journey to school through Dublin’s city centre conducted yesterday morning by OP, age four.
Much of the bags/lilo/tub of noodles lay “untagged”.
And one of the bins ate his homework.
