    I don't think there'll be any street view inside there? This entire area was a warren of streets and laneways until the start of the slum clearances and the construction of the Iveagh Trust buildings for Guinness employees nearby!

    I think the building to the left is called Something Mansion, a very grandiose term in a slum district like this.

    1903 1881 description ...
    ... In the older part of Dublin, between the Castle and the River Liffey runs off from Werburgh-street a narrow alley which then brought you into a small square of dismal brick houses, called 'Derby-square.' Very few of the wealthier and more fashionable inhabitants of Dublin know the existence. of this dreary quadrangle. The houses were high and dingy; many of the windows were patched with paper; clothes lines extended across from window to window, and on the whole the place had an air of having seen better days — better, but never very good. In this Derby-square, it appears, was a boys' school; and here Clarence Mangan received what scholastic training he ever had. ...
    From a Freeman's Journal (Sydney, Australia) article talking about the centenary of James Clarence Mangan's birth. trove.nla.gov.au/ndp/del/article/108254409 Edit: It appears the description is even older than 1903 - it appears in this 1881 newspaper - trove.nla.gov.au/ndp/del/article/200455966

    Niall McAuley So it is Main Street, thanks a million!
  • Niall McAuley said:
    The street lighting looks pretty feeble, one lamp strung on a wire across the road. This was before the yellow Sodium lights, too, so there would have been one puddle of white light and a lot of shadow.

    I owned a 1960 Ford Thames 100E van in the sixties. We use to put an old bus seat in the back for the passengers and had the two small rear windows enlarged. (you could buy a kit to do the job) In 1964 I drove the van from London to Donegal via Fishguard/Rosslare. 10 hours from London to Fishguard. Lifted on and off the ship in a net. Another 10 hours drive from Rosslare to Donegal. Not bad for a small van with three forward gears and a top speed of around 60mph.. flic.kr/p/6Ntg5H
