    The church doesn't look RC so I'd imagine that New Church refers to some brand of non-conformism rather than to a physical building.

    derangedlemur Ah, hadn't considered that at all.

    I really like how they framed the church here between 2 buildings!

    Street View The Church of Ss Peter & Paul was designed by Edward Pugin. The foundation stone was laid 15 Aug 1859. It seems to have been finished about 1861, although it wasn’t dedicated until 29 Jun 1866.

    St Peter and St. Pauls church is much the same today tho the archway has gone. The road leads up to Paul St and shopping centre maps.google.co.uk/maps?q=st+patricks+st+cork&hl=en&am...

    hmm Usually i hear of parades or marches for the army (apparently as a power show) ... but policemen parade? I don't know how much common is that.

    I find the "slow unravelling of the photos details and origins" on these pages through the investigative comments and detailed knowledge of several posters as fascinating as the photos themselves - yesterdays was a great example ...... I'll be back to see what follows

    Hurraah, Hurrah Limerick features on NLI in Flickr but where's this Georges Street I ask. That beautiful thoroughfare is O'Connell St with The Crescent and O'Connell Avenue in the distance. Limerick is of course a very old city but in the 1700's/1800's a planned city on a grid was developed and this street was part of what is/was Newtown-Pery. The massed ranks are marching in the opposite direction to modern parades as we normally had parades that marched down towards the O'Connell Street/William St. junction behind the photographer. I know they look like policemen but I can't see that many "polis" having a role in Limerick around that time. They are marching in the direction of the "New" barracks, now Sarsfields Barracks, and I suspect that this might explain the direction and the echelons.

    there seem to be a band marching in the opposite direction???

    TJ No TJ, if you look closely in Original size you will see that they have the bayonet frogs to the left just like the group closest the camera. I was just going to comment on the bayonets, they are each wearing a bayonet in a frog on a white belt. This is more a military item of kit than police and looking at the dress of the NCO's they are wearing sashes etc which is once again more a military affectation than a police one.
