    I think we have seen that chain on Mayors of Waterford before...

    One year later, and one mayor later. The previous image (below) is Edward Walsh (Mayor 1928-29). www.flickr.com/photos/nlireland/6061514031/ Which would likely make this portrait image John Wyley (Mayor 1926-27). At least according to Wikipedia and the NLI catalogue.

    It also says "Waterford" above his head... (As part of the coat of arms and motto of Waterford City: "Urbs Intacta Manet Waterfordia")
  • Niall McAuley said:
    wikipedia has a list, and suggests that in 1926 and 1927 the Mayor was John J. Wyley

    Streetview 25" map at GeoHive

    The plaque (still there in streetview) reads: These buildings were erected by the Waterford Corporation Henry Grainger T.C. Mayor AD 1898

    According to this site on the Waterford Workhouse:The nearby Fever Hospital was demolished in the 1970s.
  • Niall McAuley said:
    The house at the far end of the terrace looks to be a shop in todays pic, I see a Lipton's Tea sign.

    The pinafore dress on the girl outside the first house and the barefoot boy further up points me towards the start of the century. I think almost certainly pre-WWI. Also the blur on the other girl at the first house shows a slow shutter-speed.
