That two-masted steam yacht(?) In the middle looks special. I like the two ladies having a natter on the bench. The gent in the bowler mid right looks like he knows the photographer.

beachcomber australia Lots of work going on, I wonder if we are near the opening?

Arciseek has a colourized version - www.archiseek.com/2012/the-pavilion-dun-laoghaire-co-dubl...

Does the flag say "PAVILION OPEN" , or is it my wishful thinking? 1904 ...
National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
beachcomber australia I think there are too many letters for "OPEN"?

Edit - I'm thinking Garden or Gardens?

The church tower top left does not seem to have a spire yet ... Streetview is a bit odd around there - maps.app.goo.gl/jvXxdf5BQS8nkJxa6

This is that weir on the Dodder again:

Cataloguer was having a bad day- EAS_1844 next door is titled Beechwood Avenue, Kingstown. Beechwood Avenue is in Ranelagh, near enough to todays shot. Likewise EAS_1841, EAS_1845, and Charleston Road in EAS_1842

There are a number of Kingstown/Dun Leary shots in the early 1830s which are not digitized, but are probably correct given that they show the harbour. No harbour in Ranelagh/Milltown.

After this sequence of mis-titled shots, we have the nearby but correctly titled:

from source.southdublinlibraries.ie/handle/10599/8697

South Dublin Libraries have this VERY similar view, dated "c. 1881".
Spot the differences (hint: fence)

Probably the weir below Rathfarnham Bridge, from memory
Suck Diesel said:
beachcomber australia Your photo makes me think it’s the weir below Orwell Rd Bridge (Waldron’s Bridge), although I can’t place either buildings as the GeoHive map viewer won’t open the 25” without a sign in. Anybody else experiencing this?
