  Oooh, another fire ladder! marked on the 25" as a Fire Escape. Trees now obscure this aspect in streetview

• Niall McAuley said:

  A set of fire ladders in Kingstown in the archive, and another in Monkstown

• Niall McAuley said:

  In this Bing bird's eye view, you can see that the long building with a skylight at right is the dead zoo.

• Niall McAuley said:

  Dating detail: swan necked lamp-post at left means after 1901 and tram electrification. No actual light on the lamp-post may mean it is during electrification works.

• Niall McAuley said:

  (Unlike many other streets, the swan necked lamp posts are still there in streetview).

  Rory Sherlock Well done! About the cannons - www.independent.ie/regionals/kerryman/lifestyle/canons-ho... including -

  ... the decommissioned cannon were still explosive until just a few years ago. In late 2012 five sticks of gelignite, detonators and a fuse were found stuffed into one of the them. The explosives, which were viable, had lain undiscovered in the cannon for over 20 years following a failed attempt by republicans to destroy the memorial.

  "... the original bronze lettering [on the memorials] was replaced in 1871 with limestone panels, owing to vandalism." What are we seeing here? From - books.google.com.au/books?id=yD_jDQAAQBAJ&pg=PA83&...
