 Thomas Exchange UK (www.thomasexchange.co.uk) can usually convert most old pre-Euro currencies, including Irish Punts back into Sterling and they also convert some of the coins as well.

The best bet is to bring the notes to their West End branch in London (near Oxford Circus Station) and they will then convert the notes/coins into Sterling cash. Or, if you are based outside London, you can post the notes/coins to them and they can pay you by cheque (but ring in advance before you post).
