  ccferrie Thanks for location! Re the brilliantly named De Pews, could this have been taken before 1901 census, given that Harry's only 26. Bridget is a widow and keeping a boarding house in 1901, so might this have been her husband's enterprise?? Just think 26 is young to have your name over the door but could, as ever, be completely wrong! P.S. John Ward is coming through from the other side on your Thomas Curran link!

  Gregory PC Excellent, and with the same poster in situ, though taken on a gloomier day - no awnings out over the shop fronts! Says Circa 1905, hmmm!

  In 1886, Armagh had seventeen pillar and wall boxes. Every day the Post Office dealt with between 8000 and 9000 letters, about 250 parcels, 250-300 telegrams, as well as all the other services it performed for 22 hours a day. To mark the "extensions, alterations and re-arrangements" which were then almost complete, which had "transformed it into an entirely new office, probably more complete than in any other city of the empire with a similar population" the Belfast News-letter published an article extolling its work on November 12, 1886 Everything you ever wanted to know about Armagh Post Office Take that, Darjeeling!

  The Royal Regiment of Artillery was created in 1756, per wikipedia

  Post 9th July 1949 when the last tram left the Pillar on the Kingstown line No7

• Niall McAuley said:

  Well , the trams are gone, so it's after 1949.
  
  DannyM8 Snap!

• National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:

  DannyM8 Thanks Danny. So almost certainly 1950 (or a bit later).
