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).

The horse trams started in 1879 per wikipedia, and ran (or walked!) until 1918.

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.

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/
