Trinity College Dublin, late 19th century

    There's vast numbers of boaters being worn. Was that the style of the day or is there some boater related event on (Provost's garden party or something)?
  • Gerry Ward said:
    An electric tram and a horse-drawn tram should help with the dating. I believe electrification started in 1896 and was complete by 1901. But when did the last horse trams stop?
  • heady school said:
    I spy at least two top hats. One on a gent just passing the Trinity front gate, and another on a man about to leave frame on left.
  • derangedlemur said:
    There's a bicycle in the modern (post 1890) style on the left in front of the Bank of Ireland. It's a bit blurred but it has two wheels the same size, a trapezoid frame and a chain driven rear wheel.
  • Niall McAuley said:
    Dublin Trams: This was completed in four years and when the last horse tram ran on the Bath Avenue line in January 1901, the Dublin area had about 66 electric route miles, of which nearly 50 were owned by the DUTC.

    Question please: why the writing at the bottom is reversed?
  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
    TJ It's a glass plate negative. If you look at any of our Lawrence photos (or images from many of our other collections), you'll see the same thing...
  • John Spooner said:
    The establishment on the right looks like H C Perry & Son, but amongst those present at the 1896 Licensed Grocers and Vintners' Association's Annual Meeting (as reported in Freeman's) were "Edrwd Irwin Campbell, R Crawford (R Perry & Son, Rathdowney)" [edit] Must be different Perry - in 1878 Mr. Robinson Perry of Rathdowney was described in the Belfast News-letter as Secretary of the Provincial Brewers Association.

    Raglan Cycles: 1896 The company was registered on 4 December, to take over the businesses of Taylor, Cooper and Bednell and the Anti-Friction Ball Co
  • derangedlemur said:
    They built a 2hp motorcycle and forecar from 1902-1903, yet ultimately concentrated on cycle production throughout which lasted until around 1906. So you've got a date range of 1896 - 1906 (plus however long it takes to remove a sign - 20 years?).

    Think this is a little later than the Egg and Foul Market given the growth in the tree on the right. But not much. Egg and Fowl is circa 1905 so I would say 1906 or 07 at 12.12 PM some day
  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
    DannyM8 Well, circa 1905 on the Egg and Fowl Market was speculative... Never firmly established.
  • DannyM8 said:
    National Library of Ireland on The Commons Understand that. But think this is a little older
  • DannyM8 said:
    Think this might be the Egg and Fowl Market also?
  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
    DannyM8 Deffo geese, etc. lying on the ground...
