    I've been in several docks over the years and have never seen timber stacked so neatly and with that roof effect to shed water in the event of rain. The cleanest and tidiest docks I have ever seen! Well done Belfast:-)

    In the 1895 Belfast and Province of Ulster directory, Robinson, Hill & Co are ship smiths at Dufferin Road and 10 Garmoyle Street. streetdirectories.proni.gov.uk/media/ziqr6gQOaZANJu0xstjp...
  • Vab2009 said:
    I am not sure whether this is Dufferin Road or Garmoyle street. They run either side of a dock, but I can not work out where this is as we are looking at Cave Hill, which is north of the docks, and the orientation of the dock is SW to NE.

    No sign of clock tower at the floating dock which would date photograph pre 1880. www.buildingsofireland.ie/niah/search.jsp?type=record&...

    Is the photographer up on Saint Mary's Cathedral?
  • tonyheaney said:
    The photo was obviously taken up on Saint Mary's Cathedral tower. The Shannon Rowing Club is missing here and it was founded by Sir Peter Tait in 1868 and has a very elegant clubhouse on the northern side. Assumption 1 - Before 1868 But the Limerick Rowing Club was founded in 1870 and has a simpler structure on the southern side. Assumption 2 - After 1870, There is no sign of The Dock Clock down in Steamboat Quay which was built in 1880. Assumption 3 - Before 1880 Final Date Assumption is 1867 National Library of Ireland, what say you?

    Thanks tonyheaney. I concur. And have tweaked the description to reflect!
  • tonyheaney said:
    I have been pouring over these photos with such curiosity and intensity and the more I look at these images the more my heart skips a beat just to see my home as I have never been seen before. I almost feel like I have been living in 1890 Limerick for the past few weeks, and as such, I have become intimately acquainted with Oul Limerick.

    Crikey! Obviously this photo was taken in an age long forgotten and not remembered by many. I hope the zebra lived a long life and was cared for with love.

    I wonder what we're in the other drawers...😊
