Men with horse-drawn float at St. Stephen's Green

    This could be any of 3 gates - the Grafton St, Merrion Row and Leeson St. corners. The only surviving one is at Leeson St. (Grafton St. now has Fusilier's Arch, and Merrion Row was altered to stick in the Robert Emmet statue.) Streetview.
  • Sharon Corbet said:
    The notes on the photo in the NLI mention the following: "Boat decorated with garlands etc. as part of an annual fund-raising flag day held by the Royal National Lifeboat Institution in Dublin and across the U.K."
  • Niall McAuley said:
    Sharon Corbet Robert Emmet? This is Tonehenge! And I think this is the Merrion Row corner, based on the position of that tram wire pole and squinting at the OSI map.
  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
    Thanks Sharon Corbet - I guess we should pay more attention to our own notes :)
  • O Mac said:
    Sharon Corbet The tram pole would narrow it down to Merrion Row or Grafton St corner, 25" OSI Stephens Green

    It looks like a ski resort, aside from the donkeys and no snow.

    Probably somewhere in Donegal given Dr. Clarkes history. An especially interesting photograph with the chains linking the donkeys which I have never seen before though it does make sense. The one poor old ass would find those heavy rocks a great burden going uphill. Some fine beards on display for Movember and some very well shod boys given the era of the image. Would that indicate that it was winter even though the workman is in shirt sleeves? Where is Annie McGinley when you need her?
  • O Mac said:
    Odd building. No boxed soffits and low pitch roof. Strange layout too. Church, school, convent?? Three grown men and two asses bringing a rock for a walk.
  • George FitzPatrick said:
    O Mac Non boxed soffits quite common on buildings of that Victorian/Edwardian era. Also uses less wood so cost saving. It does look ecclesiastical.

    If it's in Donegal, it's not heritage. NIAH doesn't seem to have it under any obvious category. Unless the date is post-1920, I suppose.

    I see that the two people are keeping their "social distance queue" .... or else she is being followed by plain clothes police aha !

    Streetview There's something very no-nonsense about her attitude which I appreciate.
  • Wendy: said:
