    From the Clarke collection catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000727472 From his time as a student, 1897 - 1904, Terenure tram is electrified, so post 1899, still has triangular destination symbol, which fits with an 1904 end date. Date 1899 - 1904

    Always good to revisit these photos, especially if there is a clock - 16:45

    *loud curses echo around our lair* Mea culpa. I'll be drummed out of The Marys, because I'm the one who chose this photo. I deserve to have my toggles ceremonially ripped off, but I completely blanked that we had seen this exact photo before. Sometimes longingly wish that we had one of those Men in Black gadgets, and that we could wipe all of your elephantine memories...

    Have the street numbers changed since Mr Clarke's day? GoogleMaps sent me to the wrong place.

    The flag says "MAPLE HOTEL", seen in an earlier French/Lawrence photo from the other end of the block. No fancy electric lamp-posts - catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000333251
  • Niall McAuley said:
    This car, on the road when the system was introduced, would be a low number, probably Dublin.

In the long arms of the law!

    The Seamens Mission and Sailors' Reading Room at 13 Eden Quay was opened on Friday July 20th 1888, at 3:00 pm. In September the Dublin Daily Express reported:
    The Missions to Seamen Institute, 13 Eden quay, which was opened three weeks ago, is much prized by seafaring men. On Thursday last 72 visited the Sailors’ Reading Room, 12 letters were written there, 4 letters received there for seamen, 28 present at the temperance meeting in the evening, and 4 pledges taken, two of which temperance pledges were taken by shipwrecked sailors belonging to the crew of the wreck Mazeppa, and who have worked their passage to this port in the barque Miseltoe.

    The Helmet Plate was used from 1902 to 1922. No laurels were used in Victoria's time.
