Aer Lingus 747 seating

Can anyone remember what the seating arrangement was like on the EI 747's? In particular I am interested to know about the upper deck and the forward cabin.

From memory, the cabins were named after the four provinces, with the addition of Tara (the ancient seat of the High Kings of Ireland) to make up a fifth cabin on the main deck. I have a distant memory that the location of each cabin was depicted on the rear of the boarding pass. I can't remember in which order they appeared - but I suspect that Tara was the forward main deck cabin.

Did the upper deck cabin have a name? I sat up there once (maybe around 1980/81), but I can't remember much about it at all - other than a vague recollection of the seating being 2-2.

Can anyone provide any additional information or pictures?
