    Firstly, welcome back Carol - our lives were so much duller without your presence and posts! Secondly when I was growing up in Limerick this was more or less the centre of activity because (a) I lived not too far away and (b) my father worked on the railway. This scene had not changed much when I was growing up and I can remember some jarveys parked along that fence line though there was a line of taxis nearby as well. Those gates were still there right up to the 1960's if I remember right and the station building was and remains more or less the same. In our time the bus terminal for the country linking the trains with the outlying areas and towns not served by the railway were up there to the right of the shot and I remember the green single deckers with the luggage on the rack on the roof leaving there down through the years. Ah, them was the days!!! This was probably taken from the Railway Hotel which was directly across the street from the station?

    I should mention that this is right in the heart of "Cookie" country, just up to the right was Careys Road and the Young Munster rugby club was centred in that area. The club which is 120+ years old was drawn from local workers and craftsmen and the name was cocking a snoop at those elitist clubs like the Old Belvederes, Old Wesleys etc.

    What a contrast between the extravagant hats of the ladies and the caps of the urchins standing right next to them.

    National Library of Ireland on The Commons Morning Mary is out of control! Do you think photographs grow on trees here at Library Towers?? :)

    This one is very early. I was wondering if there were really no tram tracks at all. Looking at the roofline beyond the GPO I see this building from 1863, but not this one beyond it from 1869, which is present in today's other shot from 190x. If no trams, definitely before 1872 in any case.

St. Stephens Green on the double.

    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.
