Cross at Blackrock, Co. Dublin.

    The one in Co. Dublin. Apparently although it's now on Main Street (Streetview) it has moved around a bit: "In 1865 there was a huge controversy over whether or not the cross should be removed completely. Instead the cross was moved and a new base was built for it. Having been at a few locations, the cross is now on Main Street. The present day cross is smaller with parts having been removed from it."
  • Sharon Corbet said:
    That's a milestone beside it giving distances to Dublin and Kingstown (1 7/8 miles? Sounds about right.)
  • Sharon Corbet said:
    25" OSI Map showing Market Cross and M.S. for milestone, which probably is the position of the cross in the photo above, and definitely this Lawrence collection shot.
  • Niall McAuley said:
    Sharon Corbet The modern Central Café is at #42, which confirms that the cross in this shot is in the position marked in the OSI 25". Temple Road has been widened since, and the shops labelled Magrath as well as Marsden in the Lawrence and this Mason from a different date are gone now.

    Marie Magrath was a Retired Draper in 1901.

    An early and rather crude enclosed bus, I could swear I've seen a photo of a similar bus with the date 1905-1907 somewhere....

    Interesting to see; thanks for posting!

    National Library of Ireland on The Commons Why are you posting anything to these greyscale fanatics? None of your images qualify for their mad rules, as they're all full colour scans of a black and white hardcopy, usually yellowed with age and stained with unguessable humours.
