For all you Railway and Transport enthusiasts out there we are proposing to make a wee change that might appeal to you next week from Tuesday for the week. Instead of posting just one shot with a search for info on location etc, we will post two! One will be the traditional shot and the second will be one with a train, engine or railway location. We hope that this will be of interest to those who like something different and that we can learn what people like and have an interest in. It also gives us a chance to share the wonderful O'Dea collection with the Commons!

Built "1907" - central pediment, and something underneath in Gaelic?

Not Larne or Lisdoonvarna, other Eagle Hotels in the NLI collection.

Hi, Here is a British Pathe newsreel of a Bray swimming club gala/regatta in 1926. www.britishpathe.com/video/bray-s-c-gala-aka-bray-regatta

From Bray Town Council's website: In 1932 the Eagles Nest ballroom and Café was built near the summit of the Head. The Eagles Nest was for many years the scene of popular dances and entertainment for locals and visitors alike. In 1946, Irish Holidays Limited bought the Eagles Nest and under the directions of Eamon Quinn built the Chairlift.

Whilst we are in Bray, does anyone know where "Clifton Villa" was, and if it is still there? I am trying to find information about a rellie who lived and died there in 1873 - paperspast.natlib.govt.nz/cgi-bin/paperspast?a=d&d=NZ... . Bray looks like a good place to be.
Niall McAuley said:
Obviously the Chairlift is not in this shot. I don't think the steps up to the Eagle's Nest are here either, but I haven't yet found out exactly when they were built.

I've noticed the Brisbane Courier has lots of references to Flinders Parade as "Lower Esplanade" and present-day Eagle Terrace as "Upper Esplanade". There's a few other street names that don't seem to exist - Maxwell Street and Slaughter Street. Also Kate Street is referred to as being by the waterfront, so I assume Pier Avenue/Pier Street was Kate Street before the pier was built.
