    The chains are still there as is the famine pot(?) but the small statue is gone and the lovely lamp replaced by a palm tree. www.google.es/maps/uv?hl=en&pb=!1s0x486708991a2e07bf:...

    The DIA dates the church to 1866, the tower and spire to 1882.

    It is before the Tram arrived
  • Niall McAuley said:
    This one in the archive has tram wires, and the creeper has grown across the main door. Clearly later. There is a pole for the tram wires in this little roundabout. The later shot has cobbled roads.

    Happy New Year Danny, chosen with you in mind of course!

    Glad you came West to start the New Year. Great photo. The old tram operated between 1879 and 1918 when a shortage of horses and changing times finished it off. Many thanks for all the photos you brought us last year and looking forward to your choices for this year. The photo features what John B Keane regarded as one of the outstanding features of Irish towns in days gone by, the corner boys.
