    Congratulations to all on Explore with yesterdays image of the jetty at Ballycastle and all the activity around it. Reading all the information that emerged made for a great days entertainment. Fogra Bia In all the wonderful commentary our old friend O Mac stood out and it was the general consensus among the Marys that he should be the recipient of the Virtual Sticky Bun! Enjoy!!

    I think it is 13:10, but I could well be wrong ...

    "Cox and Co. Pianos and Organs" Nominative determinism!

    beachcomber australia That is funny!
  • Suck Diesel said:
    The tram service started towards the end of 1898 and was a subsidiary of BTH The ‘vulture of Dartry’ was, of course, involved as contractor for the line and later as chairman.

Sure it's a Grand place to stay!

    It was a sweaty nightclub last time I was in it.

    Hmm. Based on the archiseek entry, I was in some other dubious dive with a name like Grand Central: archiseek.com/2014/1892-former-grand-central-hotel-royal-...
  • beachcomber australia said:
    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grand_Central_Hotel_Belfast "The first opened in 1893 and was converted to a military barracks in 1972, before being demolished in the late 1980s. ..." "One of the most bombarded hotels in the world, it was attacked more than 150 times by the Provisional IRA and other groups." So earliest date 1893 ?

    Streetview. The building at left is now a H&M, the Hotel is now Castle Court glass mall.

    Tram tracks, but no electrification: before 1905.

    Carters are demonstrating "social distancing". from street view so much is still familiar, the green is still encircled with the little (but renewed) posts
  • O Mac said:
    Foxglove The granite posts are still there but the linking chains are gone a while.. I remember them being there in the 70's.... the 1970's
  • Carol Maddock said:
    I love this one. We're usually over the other side of the Green (top of Grafton Street, near the Shelbourne, etc.).
  • George FitzPatrick said:
    Foxglove Looking the stone posts on the street view, some ones present day are cleaner that others. But all retain top cast/forged steel fitting for the chain. Modern copies? James Dobson &Co are listed in 1891 Kellys Post Office directory as Upholsterers and Decorators 20 Maddox St and 114 St Stephens Green. A sunny day and not a dog to be seen.
