We have used the presence or absence of tram horses to date many a photo over the years. Today can we focus a little on the working conditions for tram horses back then. We have seen photos of tramway buildings and power stations, but I do not think we have ever seen a Tramway stables or other infrastructure associated with the horses.

The trams were electrified in 1905, so date range 1888 to 1904

Among the Smith-Barry tenants evicted from James Street on Tuesday 17th December 1889 (according to Freeman's the following day)
Patrick Cleary, draper Michael Kennedy, provision store James Davis, stationer Danl(sic) Ryan, victualler Jas Murray, boot manufacturer Michael Cross, draper Widow Bennett, harness maker
We know that Michael Cross and Patrick Cleary ended up in New Tipperary. I wonder about the others.
