    I’m no Galway boffin, but I would say the Church of Ireland St. Nicholas is on the left, one would be looking in the direction of Shop Street? If so the street according to bing.com maps would be Churchyard Street?.

    Look at how crisp and clear the shot is for 1905? Beautiful! Like you NLI I noticed the terrier posing for the camera, he's nearly as camera conscious as the kids against the cart!

    Robert French would have taken the photograph from the two story house on the right. The window frame on the Lynch building can be seen in bottom right www.flickr.com/photos/nlireland/22844068380/in/photolist-...

    This is one of Galway’s great stories. It is said that in 1493, the mayor and magistrate of Galway James Lynch FitzStephen, hanged his own son from the window of his home. Lynch's son confessed to have murdered a man, a Spanish merchant sailor in the care of the family who had romanced his girlfriend. When no one could be found to carry out the execution, Judge Lynch hanged (or lynched as the practice became known around the world after this event) his son himself, ensuring that justice prevailed, before retiring into seclusion. The memorial is now embedded in stone above a Gothic doorway on Market Street near the graveyard at St. Nicholas’s Church. www.activeme.ie/guides/attractions-2/lynchs-memorial-wind...
