First off, thanks for the advise on Drimnagh BICIP. . .From a previous post.
Kildare Rd is a nice spot, no where near as rough as the other roads mentioned, i lived on Clogher Rd (was born & rared there), i never remember any trouble growing up or otherwise, the road is very mature & settled. . . .i haven't lived there in 10 yrs tho so could of changed. Kildare rd links with clogher rd & runs down past the transport club to Sallys bridge. . . . just incase you wondering where it is.
Good luck with whatever you decide. Oh & 1 more think, i see from other links & posts that ppl say ask in the local Garda station, wel, i went into my local station the other day to enquire about drimnagh & they said "they do not give out infomation like that".
