    O Mac It is indeed. There're lovely street signs up on the corner behind the cross.

    So there is!!.... The gas lighting looks abandoned. No mantle, no glass, bent poles. That thingimabob far right is a "Tumbling Paddy". Used for gathering up loose hay. When so much was gathered it flipped itself and off it went so on.

    NE cornet of Cumberland and Essex Streets. Remarkably relatively unchanged today. The side door has become a window. Google street view - maps.google.com.au/maps?f=q&source=s_q&hl=en&...
  • Museums of History NSW - State Archives Collection said:
    Looks to be in the same good condition. Even the poles holding up the awning (which looks new) seem to be the same ones.
  • Mark Dowsett said:

    There was a lot of meat eaten in those days and thats for sure. What a display of corpses, almost ghoulish!!! Imagine how the EC bureaucrats and the health inspectorate would react to a display like that today??
  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
    They would have absolute caniptions! However, at least this array of meat was outside in December, not in high summer...

  • Swordscookie said:
    I see what you mean Granny! They have that pulled in for all your worth look about them and the ribs look like the laces to tighten them up!!!!
  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
