    Madam, - In the Lawrence Collection there is a photograph of the Channel Squadron of the Royal Navy at anchor in Killary Harbour in the West of Ireland. I have researched this considerably and have concluded that it was on the morning of Sunday, October 8th 1899. I have examined the logs of some of the ships present and would like to explore the position a little more. If any of your readers have any information which could assist me I would be grateful if they would contact me at the address below, fax 01-6671080 - Yours, etc., BRENDAN WALSH, 34 Upper Baggot Street, Dublin 4. 21/06/2003 See - www.irishtimes.com/opinion/letters/royal-navy-ships-at-ki... Now, what extra information can we find? ... ...

    According to Kenny’s the Rockland Hotel was built in 1935 and was owned by the Monaghan sisters. The shop with the canopy on the left is a sweet shop. www.kennys.ie/old-galway/1893-the-rockland-hotel

    Quite Adept Excellent. So 1935 for a kick-off.

    The car at right is registered ZC 6124. This series was used in Dublin from March 1937 to January 1940 and, given the number 6124, it seems likely that it was allocated towards the end of the period.

    Sure we may as well have a bit of streetview: maps.app.goo.gl/fVK7AL2yETGR6knF6

    Looks from the 25" like there should be tram lines in front of it, but between the blurriness of the road and the general policy of the time of ripping up tramlines, there's nothing identifiable in the image. They're not marked on the post-war 6". Edit: The hotel with the tramlines in front of it is a hundred yards behind the cameraman, on the corner of Atlantic terrace. (still standing, btw).
