    Is this it nowadays? www.flickr.com/photos/jonclark2000/2119690514/

    Brian Mulligan I think so, but am absolutely open to correction by Waterford people! I'm assuming the Tower Hotel was built on the site of the Adelphi Hotel, so confirmation or outright denial would be good...

    The Neptune ironworks last big ship was the Lara completed for the Waterford Steamship Company in 1868, and with her sleek lines and powerful engines (200 HP), she reduced the passage time Liverpool to Waterford route from 30 hours to just over 18 hours. When launched she was one of the largest cattle boats afloat and gave her owners 40 years of consistent and fairly uneventful service before her sale for breaking up in 1908.

    I think there's a reference on Page 3 of the Irish Times of Friday March the 12th 1897, but it's behind a paywall.
  • Niall McAuley said:
    If that is Lord Chief Justice Sir Peter O'Brien (Baronet), later The Right Honourable The Lord O'Brien, 1st (and last) Baron O'Brien, that would explain the hoo-hah.

    Niall McAuley Afraid to look behind the paywall! You and your 12th March - you're ruining our Year in the Life buzz... :D (Will check it later, if that's ok)

    Great details in the dress and I wonder how many did not come back.

    Nice perspective.

    Great photo. It gives a really good idea of how people dressed at the time, children, women and men, the detail is so good. It's hard to imagine this is less than 100 yrs ago.
