Ghost with ladder!

Well it says Arthur Street on it. I'm guessing Belfast.

It is the Theatre Royal: archiseek.com/2013/1881-theatre-royal-arthur-st-belfast/

Arthur Square & Arthur Street - Belfast? Update: Oops, just too late...

There's a description of the 1881 version of the Theatre Royal here which mentions among other things: "Along the whole of the façade in Arthur-square a covered veranda or porch has been erected of iron and glass; so that the audience waiting for the opening of the doors will be protected when the weather is wet, and those coming in carriages will not have to cross a damp pavement previous to entering the theatre." The veranda can be seen in the Archiseek photo (available in Megazoom in the catalogue.)Meaning that the one above is probably the 1871 version.

10 November 1908 was a Tuesday ...

Dog but no clock ...

I don’t know why, but has an American feel to it. Probably just my fancy.

The fancy building has MUNICIPAL OFFICES written on the end. On the shop fronts, I think I see OLSEN, MASSEY BICYCLE and RYAN

I only see 1 Saint John in Tipperary in the 1911 census :James Saint John, retired farmer, not living in Crohane. Ah, most are spelled St John.

Is this the corner of George and Market St, where Myer is now?

At the intersection of George and Barrack Streets and Martin Place. I had no idea David Jones was ever there.
