    Interesting photo.
    I've always been interested in Ireland's military history, in particular in the interwar period and during The Emergency.
  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
    Patrick Castelli Will bear that in mind, Patrick, and see what we can dig up for you...
  • Luís Felipe López Garay said:
    Interesting!

    This is a picture of my Grandfather Lewis James Thomas with my gran, auntie Olive and uncle Richard, my mother is not in the photo as she was camera shy.
    my grandfather died in Japanese prisoner war camp just before the end of the war.
  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
    lukusnan How did you ever come across this photo? What amazing information, thank you!

    We had E. J. Thomas as that's how the photo appeared in the Irish Independent so it's great to have Lewis James. It's sad that your grandfather died so soon after this. Do you know how long he was stationed on Spike Island?

    Considering it's now a Benedictine Convent I'd say there are still no admirals to be seen.
  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
    Sharon Corbet Well done Sharon, so date is post 1886.
  • Sharon Corbet said:
    Closest I can get to a streetview.
  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
    Sharon Corbet I had thought I would be opening the "no longer there" album for this one, very happy that it can stay in built heritage.

    A thing of beauty - proportioned and ample verandas with cast or wrought iron railings and a widows walk!

    Outside the Medical Hall / Chemist, there is a curvy lady (Gibson Girl?) advertising some kind of drink. How is your eyesight? Can anyone read the letters? [Al]mond S----- ?? See note and megazoom™.
