Must have been a fairly new shop. The only Haddens in 1911 were a "Supt. Assurance Coy" and family. www.census.nationalarchives.ie/search/results.jsp?census_...

There's one in Wexford though: www.census.nationalarchives.ie/pages/1911/Wexford/Wexford... And there was one in Dungarvan in the fifties: snap.waterfordcoco.ie/collections/enewspapers/dungarvan_l...

We've one in Down, two in Wexford, one in Carlow and one in Tyrone in 1911. What we need is a 1925 census.
derangedlemur said:
"Shaws, founded in 1865 as a drapery shop in Co Laois by Henry Shaw, employs almost 1,000 people across its stores. In 1976 it acquired Haddens, which had shops in Carlow, Wexford and Dungarvan." Could this be it? maps.google.ie/maps?q=dungarvan&hl=en&ll=52.08913... maps.osi.ie/publicviewer/#V1,626073,593090,7,9

for Dainty Lingerie no less!! Carol
Niall McAuley said:
Based on the fact that it's on a junction, and the ground slopes steeply right to left, I'm going to guess that this shop is at 12 Broad Street. If so, the shop is long gone, replaced by an ugly cubic thing.
DannyM8 said:
I would say that the local Horrockses sales, marketing and merchantising team paid for this photograph. They probably won the annual marketing prize for their efforts here!!
Swordscookie said:
They were a right crowd of Horrockes and thats for sure. What a wonderful shot, not only of the gentleman and his infant son in whom he has such pride but of the display and variety he has in his shop and windows. Blasts from the past - gingham, voile, overalls, flannelettes - this one has it all including the picture on display of the old lady with the loom.

Swordscookie I know! The only thing missing is Winceyette... Or is it? Screwing in monocle, and having another look!

Lots of newspaper ads in the Tipperary Nationalist around winter 1900 for Mockler (though T. rather than J.). Drapery, millinery, and so on. The ads all end with the slogan Don't wear doubtful boots this weather.

Two dogs, so far ...

There is a reverse view (with a chicken actually crossing the road), showing 'Lonergan' near up which Mr French was perched. According to streetview, Lonergan's 'Tea, Wine & Spirits Merchants Est. 1833' is still going strong; must be a record? catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000331283 goo.gl/maps/cMow52yFzf3aNeiZ9
