    I think today's photo is a fair while before this Keogh Bros one from 1911 (with a motor car). Particularly the creeper on the right -

    The railings and lamps (and presumably stairs) are there in the 1911 photo, but not there on the 25" map. Forgotten how to find the map date, but someone will know ...

    Aha! Mr French / Lawrence revisited the Guest House later, when the railings and creeper on the right were there - catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000042469

    The DBC is now open. The streetlights are still the tall globe ones. Early 1900s. Construction underway beside Clerys - the DIA says:

    Building: CO. DUBLIN, DUBLIN, O'CONNELL STREET LOWER, NO. 021-27 (CLERY & CO & IMPERIAL HOTEL)
    Date: 1902
    Nature: Enlargement of premises, comprising reconstruction of Imperial Hotel (Nos. 21 & 22) lately purchased by Clery & Co. Wrought iron canopy over main entrance of hotel with name 'cleverly interwoven', by Fagan & Son

    Clerys here has 9 urns on the parapet, if you megazoom this 1910-16 Eason, you can see the parapet has been extended the length of the Imperial Hotel:
    Westmoreland Street (looking to O'Connell Bridge, including a tram), Dublin City, Co. Dublin

    There's a huge poster in the window of John Wallis & Sons for the Cork Exhibition. Could it have been this Exhibition in 1902/1903?

    'Glen Irene' is a house. Marked on the 25" map. Still there via GoogleMaps satellite, with a different name? ...

    Street glimpse! It looks idyllic around there - maps.app.goo.gl/ZFL5C6Jz2nruRQ6N7

    CORRECTION !! Marked as "GLEN IERNE" on the 25" map. Confusing.
  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
    beachcomber australia Glen Ierne seems more likely somehow!
  • beachcomber australia said:
    National Library of Ireland on The Commons Yes, it produced this gentleman, who was born there -
    "Darcy, Hyacinth Talbot (1806–74), evangelical clergyman and landlord, was born at Glen Ierne, Clifden, son of John Darcy (see below) of a Connemara gentry family, one of the fourteen ‘Tribes of Galway’. ..."
