Great photo. I walked past this building everyday when I was going to school. By the way this was the first garage in Ireland.

Paul O'Farrell That's great to know, and we have pictures of Peares, and of Mr Peare in his motors and his motor boat! Wish the picture of Kelly's in your link was larger, then we might be able to identify individual salesmen in our photo...

This is the garage established by WF 'Bill' Peare and WGD Goff at Catherine Street, Waterford in 1900. Peares went into liquidation in 1917 and the garage has continued in use under different owners to this day. It was the first purpose-built garage in Ireland. (The first garage in Ireland was Porters at Montgomery Street, Belfast in 1899).
