The Docks, Limerick

    Interesting photo this because not much has changed in the interim. Shannon Rowing Club in the centre still stands though no longer the force it was in Iris rowing. On the left you can see parts of the Limerick Boat Club which is still there also. The portion of the bridge you see once swung in an arc to permit movement of boats and small ship to go beyond what is now Sarsfields Bridge. The statue on the left I was led to believe as a child was the son of the Lord Gough whose statue was blown up a number of times in the Phoenix Park. They were more successful with this one as the poor lad ended up in the Shannon. In fact as phlgils states below it was of John Fitzgibbon who died during the Charge of the Light Brigade at Balacalva! It has been replaced by a memorial to the 1916 uprising having statues of people with local connections therein. The building you can see on the right was either part of or beside Spillanes or Clunes tobacco factory and was still there into the 1950's.

    Swordscookie Excellent! Thank you so much for all of this information - all in just one photo, you have a formidable memory...
  • Swordscookie said:
    Going through my favourites and came across this one. This was more the "Quays" than the "docks" in Limerick. I took a photo there just last week www.flickr.com/photos/swordscookie/6475948097/in/photostream and as you will see little has changed. The ship is berthed at Harveys Quay in the basin below the swing bridge and may have been waiting for it to open before going up past it.

    Swordscookie Amazing! Almost exactly the same spot...
  • phlgils said:
    Swordscookie Actually the statue is of John Fitzgibbon who killed in Balaclava in the Charge of the Light Brigade in 1850 www.limerickcity.ie/media/Monuments%20(1916)%20007.pdf and www.buildingsofireland.ie/niah/highlights.jsp?county=LI&a... Phil Gilson, Brooklyn NY USA

    Remarkable how baking equipment hasn't changed. I guess one of mankinds earliest technologies.

    1000s of generations thinking if a design ain't broke, don't fix it!

    I think this was the cake shop in Waterford that people used to call Susie tarts!
  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
    desmondg47 Was Susie a person? Or were Susie tarts a type of cake/pastry?
  • desmondg47 said:
    Susie was a person, the owner of the shop,
