I think not a brick of this is still standing apart from the pillars of that gate on the right: Streetview

Thanks Niall McAuley - I had the same thought. It even made me question whether this was correctly labelled - but the gates and corner angle does seem to match. The baths (and building beyond) do look very ornate, so it's intriguing that only the lowly gate posts were "saved"...

The image in the Archiseek entry doesn't seem to match fully. Although, given that it gives a demolition date of 1970, what we may see here is the last vestiges (the other elements perhaps demolished before Mr Walker captured this shot...) We came across these baths on VictorianBathsDOTOrg when researching the baths in Bray. www.flickr.com/photos/nlireland/27855336191/

That archiseek page says closed in 1900 (hence, not marked on the 25" map), demolished in 1970.

You are a wonderful source, thank you again!

Probably still intact as there is a Lawrence Photographic Project in 1990/91 - catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000354584

The clock tower (right) is what is now part of the Chester Beatty Library. www.inyourpocket.com/dublin/Chester-Beatty-Library_35104v...

I think these may be Elinor's nieces again. Dates not always reliable.

Park bench view

The park bench needs several new wooden slats after 60+ years of Dublin weather, and the 'new' flying buttress has blended in well -

I love the old guy snoozing on the bench 😍. Lovely shiny shoes and cap down on the eyes.

Lovely!
