    Great picture. If memory serves, I think the small bridge in the middle was able to swing to allow slightly taller boats and barges further up the river.

    This is after 1882 when the widened and renamed ( Carlisle bridge) O'Connell Bridge was opened. The trams were fully electrified by 1901.

Group portrait with Thomas Alva Edison and Sir Thomas Lipton

  • Outgoing Produce said:
    It looks like they are on a British ship, the flag behind the group is not very clear, but quite recognizable...

Shamrock

  • Picture Esk said:
    This was the yacht that Thomas Lipton commissioned to challenge for the America Cup off New York in 1899. She was beaten by the US defender "Columbia". Lipton commisioned "Shamrock II" for his next challenge for the cup, and "Shamrock I" raced against her sister ship in the pre-race trials.
  • The National Archives UK said:
    Tea magnate Sir Thomas Lipton competed for the America's Cup five times. His crews never won but the races made him a well known sporting figure in America and served as excellent publicity for his tea brand.
