It was Thursday 5th of June 1969 according to www.calendar-12.com/holidays/corpus_christi/1969

The flats are still there, but I don't see the railing.

cute kids

Awesome

The children look to be in the 3 to 8 year old range, that would make them 51 to 56 years olds now, I wonder how long before someone recognises them?

I love this memorial and this is the very best time of year to visit! The avenue leading to the wall and grave is lined with flowering cherry trees and the blooms make it quite spectacular and bright! Lovely shot by the Wiltshires!

i was there last year !

An excellent photo.

reminds me of the War Memorial in Washington.

Well at least the lamp-posts have lasted, or have they been reproducing?

National Library of Ireland on The Commons That's the third Austin Cambridge you have posted recently! What's going on? en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Austin_Cambridge#A55_Cambridge Anyone know what the car on the right is? FIAT?

beachcomber australia The lampp-posts are the originals so made of good stuff! The car just out of shot was a Ford Anglia with the sharp angle on the rear screen. The third car down (OIK-31) I am not too sure of, possibly a Simca? What I do remember is that back door which demonstrates that this was before the era of the hatchback!

I spent a lot of time working in this area and know it well! By the time I came there in 1968 this had changed somewhat, most of the old buildings on the right were gone and the place was more or less derelict! There's a lot of history attached to the area which was once part of Oxmanstown Green. Down towards the bottom of the street just after the junction with Blackhall Street is one of the last pawnbrokers in Dublin complete with three gold balls overhead as the sign of their trade!

St Catherine's Church, Thomas Street in the distance.
