Well, sure how about a spot of streetview to start us off? maps.google.ie/maps?q=Dillon+Street,+South+Tipperary,+Tip...

The shops and pub are all just houses now.

From Wikipedia: In 1888-9, tenants of the local landlord, Arthur Smith Barry, withheld their rents in solidarity with his tenants in Co Cork. They were evicted and, under the direction of Fr. David Humphreys[8][9] and William O'Brien, decided to build a new town on land outside his control. The area now known Dillon Street and Emmet Street in Tipperary town was the centre of this development and was built by local labour but with funds raised in Australia and the United States. The high point was 12 April 1890, when a row of shops called the William O'Brien Arcade was opened, providing shops for some of the business people who had been evicted from the centre of the town. Eventually, compromise was reached and the tenants returned to the 'Old Tipperary'

Presumably the William O'Brien Arcade is the row of shops at the end. I'd guess from the road-laying activities on that this would be about 1890.

Not at all (Yawn) :)

Thanks, But not what expected...Thought it might contain info,dates etc.

guliolopez The cheek! :)

O Mac I know! I got all excited too, until I saw it...

Ah it's full of interest :) The only remnant of the Bantry Bay Steamship Co., formed in 1883 and from 1900 onwards partly owned by the Cork Bandon & South Coast Railway, hence the CBSCR making an appearance. A ship usually left Bantry at 1pm (Tues, Thurs and Sat) operating to Castletownbere, returning Mon, Wed, Fri mornings. Summer services to Glengarrif and Adrigole were also popular (think this was the 'Prince of Wales' route for tourists). Passenger services ceased 1936, goods in 1946. The corresponding pier at Bantry, built to allow trains to run up to the steamship was then dismantled. I'm almost sure the building photographed is still in-situ despite seeing many years of disuse.
