Limerick was a bit late in getting a Peoples Park - or that was the view in Limerick
There was also another project, and which was possessed by cities and towns far inferior in importance than Limerick - and that was a - "People's Park" - with some exertion, the Citizens of Limerick would succeed in having a - "Park"- (hear, hear)
Mr Michael Ryan, former mayor, at the inauguration of his successor, Alderman Fitzgerald. (Limerick Chronicle - Wednesday 04 January 1860) -
John Spooner said:
Work then commenced on the Park 14 years later on 26th October 1874. The mayor was presented with an inscribed spade, then
The mayor then raised the sod amid enthusiastic cheering, and lifting it into a handsome and fancifully painted wheelbarrow, brundled the vehicle a couple of yards, and setting it down declared the work of setting out the Limerick People's Park to be commenced.
After more ceremony including laying a foundation stone and speeches there was a "sumptuous déjeuner" (Bassett's Chronicle - Saturday 31 October 1874) [yes, he brundled the wheelbarrow] -

If you cannot remember going there 10 years ago, is it still déjà vu?

It finally seems to have opened to the public in May 1877.

I have a feeling that the French / Lawrence photo is newer than the WR&S one. You wouldn't cover over paths in a People's Park, or get rid of a young tree in the triangle. I always forget; is William Ritchie after 1903?

I don't know anything about the 1954 championships, but 2 years and 3 days ago I came across this monument at Shillingford in Oxfordshire commemorating the 1956 championships held on 11th and 12th October.


I wonder if there is anything similar at the site of the 1954 championship? -
