Niall McAuley said:
Lowson were there in 1890. No Wilson, Carswell, or Photo shop.
Lowson gone by 1901, Calvert stockbroking here.
But McCulloch is in Queen's buildings both dates, and I see Charles & Russell photographers in 1901.
I think we are between 1890 and 1901. -

The building on the left looks interesting.
I hope somebody can identify it? -

philipgmayer The fancy one with the railings? That's the Reform Club itself, I think.

Dissolution of partnership clearance sale of Wilson & Carswell advertised first in the Ulster Echo on 3rd February 1881, and the latest I can see is in the Portadown News on 29th May 1886.
Breaking up is hard to do.

I remember, as a child, digging down in the sand in Skerries (perhaps 65 years ago). Obviously not digging far, but hitting a layer of black stuff. My parents told me it was oil. It had a very particular smell. I still remember it. I still wonder what it was. It happened more than once.

The answer, according to A.I.:
The Science Behind the 'Black Oil' Layer
The Lack of Oxygen (Anoxia): On popular beaches like Skerries South Beach or North Strand, the top few inches of sand are constantly turned over by waves and the tide, keeping them well-oxygenated and clean. However, just a short distance below the surface, the tightly packed sand particles block fresh water and oxygen from penetrating.
Decaying Organic Matter: Over time, bits of seaweed, marine organisms, and organic silt get buried under the shifting sand. In an environment devoid of oxygen, normal decomposition cannot happen. Instead, specialized anaerobic bacteria take over to break down this organic material.
The Chemical Reaction: These bacteria "breathe" sulfates (which are abundant in seawater) and exude iron sulfides. It is this iron sulfide that dyes the sand grains a deep, jet-black color and gives it a slick, greasy texture that looks identical to oil. -
