This one from Tullamore is on O'Connor Square, on a building that was previously a bank but, like many main street buildings these fateful days, is now for rent.

For a place that is well off the beaten tracks to the west and the south, Tullamore has been visited many times by Benchmarker, most usually on the occasion of an athletics event. The most recent visit was no different except that time was taken to scour the streets and laneways in a 'mark hunt. Before schedule constraints intervened a grand total of four was the result, but the map indicates future potential. A pleasant break was partook of in the BK2 cafe on Colmcille Street where the friendliness of the staff was most refreshing. Benchmarker will return.
