    Looking forward to seeing more of these, great to hear they're now available.

    Channel 044 Well, we're up to Laois so far, but that leaves plenty more to come... Have a look at the whole set!
  • Channel 044 said:
    They're fascinating. Really enjoyed going through the whole stream yesterday, a wonderful resource. I posted a small edit of the photos here: shanolyno.tumblr.com/post/35213963117/irelandeditpart1

    There's vast numbers of boaters being worn. Was that the style of the day or is there some boater related event on (Provost's garden party or something)?
  • Gerry Ward said:
    An electric tram and a horse-drawn tram should help with the dating. I believe electrification started in 1896 and was complete by 1901. But when did the last horse trams stop?
  • heady school said:
    I spy at least two top hats. One on a gent just passing the Trinity front gate, and another on a man about to leave frame on left.
  • derangedlemur said:
    There's a bicycle in the modern (post 1890) style on the left in front of the Bank of Ireland. It's a bit blurred but it has two wheels the same size, a trapezoid frame and a chain driven rear wheel.
  • Niall McAuley said:
    Dublin Trams: This was completed in four years and when the last horse tram ran on the Bath Avenue line in January 1901, the Dublin area had about 66 electric route miles, of which nearly 50 were owned by the DUTC.

    First! (I have nothing sensible to say).
  • derangedlemur said:
    Apparently the chancel of St. Macartin's was enlarged in 1889. I can't tell from the photos if that's happened already in the older one though.
  • derangedlemur said:
    St. Michaels:" Largely built between 1870-75 to just above the belfry – the spire was added more recently. The interior is large and gloomy..."
  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
    derangedlemur Which/where is St. Michael's?
  • derangedlemur said:
    The barn on the right. "more recently", incidentally seems to mean mid '90s, so it's not in the other picture either.
