URBAN

A lane way I will never go down, it is grotty and sinister and totally looks like somewhere that's hiding a time portal which various time travelling criminals like Jack the Ripper use to enter 2020 from their era to escape capture. However. Hardy's bar (probably full of aforementioned time travel baddies) is named in honour of Laurel & Hardy's visit to Dun Laoghaire, and they stayed in the hotel which this bar backs onto. Did they drink there? Depends on which storyteller is telling the story. Anyway, as I'm telling it, I like to think I'm right about the time portal, maybe they discovered it and come back to visit us from time to time, who knows. :)
