Fishing for souls in Limerick

    Hallelujah! Limerick finally gets a look in! The "Jesuits" is all we ever knew this as not the "Sacred Heart". It was situated in the "Crescent" right in the heart of the city and I don't think I ever saw it so quiet in daylight. Right beside the church was the Crescent College where the Jesuits provided education for the privileged in the community. Some luminaries went to school there including Donagh O'Malley former Minister for Education, his nephew Dessie O'Malley opponent of Haughey and many times Minister and indeed Donagh's son Darragh the actor. The Jesuits were in Limerick for almost 500 years but as far as I know are all gone from there now!

    Swordscookie Steady now, Sean, think of your blood pressure! We should prescribe sedatives for you before posting any Limerick photographs... :)

    Is the photographer up on Saint Mary's Cathedral?
  • tonyheaney said:
    The photo was obviously taken up on Saint Mary's Cathedral tower. The Shannon Rowing Club is missing here and it was founded by Sir Peter Tait in 1868 and has a very elegant clubhouse on the northern side. Assumption 1 - Before 1868 But the Limerick Rowing Club was founded in 1870 and has a simpler structure on the southern side. Assumption 2 - After 1870, There is no sign of The Dock Clock down in Steamboat Quay which was built in 1880. Assumption 3 - Before 1880 Final Date Assumption is 1867 National Library of Ireland, what say you?
  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
    Thanks tonyheaney. I concur. And have tweaked the description to reflect!

    I have been pouring over these photos with such curiosity and intensity and the more I look at these images the more my heart skips a beat just to see my home as I have never been seen before. I almost feel like I have been living in 1890 Limerick for the past few weeks, and as such, I have become intimately acquainted with Oul Limerick.

"Station, Long Pavement, Co. Tipperary" is actually Co. Limerick
