Thanks! We'll fix the spelling in the source data and reload the description.

Let me know if you have any vacancies opening up...

Hi, I'm an admin for a group called Orthodox Church Architecture, and we'd love to have this added to the group!
fusion-of-horizons said:
Thank you very much for adding these 3 wonderful photos to the group! p.s. -the monasteries on Mount Athos are part of the Eastern Orthodox Church not Roman Catholic Church, as suggested by the ""catholic" tag

Basketball? Netball? with the Sisters of Charity

Basketball in Ireland ???
desmondg47 said:
They used to play netball if that's the same thing? The shot is in Sisters of Charity Convent Lady Lane and Spring Garden Alley Waterford
National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
desmondg47 Wondering if you're right about the netball! Might be a faulty description in our catalogue...
National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
Checked in the Irish Newspaper Archive and basketball is reported as a functioning sport in Ireland from 1945 onwards... (Volleyball from 1965, and Netball from 1935.)

It was taken before 1908 ...see date on building www.google.ie/maps/@52.1381891,-8.2752926,3a,53.4y,102.73...

I think it is before the 1899 provincial Bank, too, now the AIB.
Rory Sherlock said:
I think this image pre-dates the L_ROY_00062 image posted by Sharon Corbet - Note the differences in the facade of the large 12-bay block at the top of the square. In this image, the facade is fairly plain and the two bays at either end have old 6-over-6 Georgian sashes. In L_ROY_00062, the windows are all updated to one-pane-per sash, plaster hood mouldings have been placed over the windows in the central 4 bays and the 4 bays on the right, and a balustrade has been installed on top of the building at the right - that's still there (see Streetview provided by O Mac). Mannix's shop in the older image is replaced by O'Brien's in L_ROY_00062.
Niall McAuley said:
On the far side of the square at right, we see Mannix and Smith, in Sharon's shot above we saw O'Brien and Eager. I think this one is earlier...
