Google maps now has street views for all of Ireland. I'm looking for a farm from early 20th century, perhaps the building(s) still exists. Its the Smiley-Wilkinson family of Ballindrimlea, shown in 1901 and 1911 census. Anyone have any idea what the modern address/area/street would be so I might be able to take a look via Google? Thanks so much!

Ballindrimley is still there in Castlerea, Co Roscommon
Also spelt Ballindrumlea
Map Castlerea and it is on the west side of the town on the R361 road going north
