  Hi, I'm an admin for a group called Disability History, and we'd love to have this added to the group!

• pennylrichardsca (now at ipernity) said:

  Seems that "bach" can mean "crutch" or "stick"... kimkat.org/amryw/1_vortaroy/geiriadur_cymraeg_saesneg_BAE... So he's maybe called the equivalent of "Harry the Peg," or "Harry Crutch."

  See history of Richmond gate tower

• Suck Diesel said:

  I suppose that’s its second location, it did move about a bit. The stone is Dublin calp limestone. maps.app.goo.gl/BRfAUrNVjFsbqZcY7?g_st=ic

• Niall McAuley said:

  At the NIAH: Richmond Tower was originally constructed at the junction of Watling Street and Victoria Quay, and was moved to the Royal Hospital at Kilmainham in 1847 due to traffic congestion caused by the opening of the new railway terminus at Kingsbridge, now Heuston Station. The gateway was named after the Duke of Richmond, Lord Lieutenant (1807-1813), and was designed by Francis Johnston, who was also responsible for alterations to the courtyard and north range of the main Royal Hospital building in the early years of the nineteenth century.

• Niall McAuley said:

  I never knew it had been moved there, here is a Streetview of its original location at Watling St/The Quays as marked on the 1830s 6" OSI.

  Presumably this is in Paris. See neighboring photo taken at the Hotel du Phare, Paris
  

• Ryan (LOC P&P) said:

  Thank you jamica1 for your research, and thank you swanq, for making the connection between the two photographs. We'll add some information about Winifred Holt to the records the next time we update.
