    The horse trams started in 1879 per wikipedia, and ran (or walked!) until 1918.
  • Niall McAuley said:
    I see a swan necked electric light, which suggests 1905+

    At left is Alexander Moon's, which remained Moon's until it was absorbed by Brown Thomas.
  • Niall McAuley said:
    According to this Kenny's bookshop page: The building dates from c.1870. It opened initially under the name Farquarson, then it became Farquarson and Moon , then Alexander Moon, then Alexander Moon Ltd. Today it trades under the name Brown Thomas, though most Galwegians still call it Moons.

    This Lawrence photo might help with something - catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000335949 There seems to be a horse-drawn tramway track missing here. Edit - deja vu - www.flickr.com/photos/nlireland/32437084006/

    Taken from the bridge on Bridge St. looking North: Streetview
  • Niall McAuley said:
    Per the 25", the large building at left is a Distillery, the more distant one at far left a corn mill. On map and this shot the building at right is a woolen factory. In streetview we see the 1960s Cathedral dome (or Taj Michéal as it is sometimes known).
  • Niall McAuley said:
    One of the men is wearing a boater, probably 1900-1910.
  • Niall McAuley said:
    In the distance I see the railway viaduct, in operation from 1895.
