Lovely!
The building at top right of this one is the same as the building at top left of this (earlier) one nearby:

Niall McAuley Spotted your note for the "works" on the bridge. Was it a swing bridge?

Niall McAuley said:
The narrow part of the bridge nearest the camera was a lifting section to allow sailing ships past. You can see some cogs in the mechanism at the bottom of the narrow section. This has since been replaced with a wider but uglier flat concrete span visible here:

Things in 1922 were unchanged since the the GeoHive OS 25" (which has an incorrect survery date of 1888 attached, but is actually after 1905.) The Bank is still there, the Woollen Mills burned down in the 1940s and a Radisson Blu is there now, the Methodist Church is still there but the steeple is gone, and the Post Office is gone too, replaced by a rather ugly Bank building.

Wonderful photo of a nations and a family's loss. I had never seen this before and it is very good. Interesting to see how they hall was laid out to cope with those who wished to pay their respects to the fallen leader.

I was reading about Michael Collins and it said the last known photograph of him was in Bandon before the ambush. Is this photograph in your collection?

oh wow, thanks! I've just been reading coincidentally about Michael Collins recently and it is such an incredible history (incredible in the sense of cultural and historical relevance, not withstanding any political standpoints.) love this flickr, you do such a great job! I always check in every week
