"Success to New Tipperary; 'tis the glory of our land!"

  Well, sure how about a spot of streetview to start us off? maps.google.ie/maps?q=Dillon+Street,+South+Tipperary,+Tip...

  The shops and pub are all just houses now.

  From Wikipedia: In 1888-9, tenants of the local landlord, Arthur Smith Barry, withheld their rents in solidarity with his tenants in Co Cork. They were evicted and, under the direction of Fr. David Humphreys[8][9] and William O'Brien, decided to build a new town on land outside his control. The area now known Dillon Street and Emmet Street in Tipperary town was the centre of this development and was built by local labour but with funds raised in Australia and the United States. The high point was 12 April 1890, when a row of shops called the William O'Brien Arcade was opened, providing shops for some of the business people who had been evicted from the centre of the town. Eventually, compromise was reached and the tenants returned to the 'Old Tipperary'

• derangedlemur said:

  Presumably the William O'Brien Arcade is the row of shops at the end. I'd guess from the road-laying activities on that this would be about 1890.
