    I was there in the past year or so and took a few shots of that view. I like the little steam powered boat having just pushed off from the quayside. The boat on the left looks very well built with a clinker hull looking very well indeed.

    I believe the curvy ironwork lamps are gone now though...
  • Swordscookie said:
    They're not curvy ironwork lamps - they're davits for lifting boats in and out of the water! They look like they were removable but yes they were not to be seen.

    Swordscookie Well, colour me embarrassed! I was misinformed on the davits, and thanks for that very useful tag. There were lamps there somewhere though, which aren't nowadays.

    There is just something about these old pictures that is so charming, catching and preserving that one moment in time that we get to enjoy seeing now. Thank you for sharing.

A lot of horse power in these stables!

    Hi, Is that a turntable?
  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
    Leonard Bentley Hello Leonard. I don't think so. It looks to me like a beautifully paved, but fixed structure. There is a sort of "gutter" all the way around, so presumably it was a washing area?

    The circle is still visible on Google maps. Here is the historic OSI link.

    There are 87 people listed in the Demesne in the 1901 census, including: Jarvis David 26 M England Coachman Bruen Michael 20 M Co Roscommon Stable Boy Domestic Servant Bruen John 19 M Co Roscommon Stable Boy Domestic Servant I think it is likely that those three are here somewhere. There are also many gardeners, gamekeepers, a Steward, a Butler and an RIC constable.

    Also: Kelly John 26 M Kings County Stable Boy Domestic Servant

    Edmund FitzAlan-Howard, 1st Viscount FitzAlan of Derwent See wikipedia for another view of this fine moustache.

    Streetview? I think City Hall must be at right, and from the angle of the sun, we're on the North side...
  • Sharon Corbet said:
    That'd put Robinson & Cleaver somewhere to the left, and I don't really see anything that looks like this (which was taken about 2 weeks later): www.flickr.com/photos/nlireland/10990906846/ (Not that I can find anything that looks right, myself)
  • Sharon Corbet said:
    Niall McAuley Wait. I think you're in the right place, but wrong direction. The photo is looking up Donegall Place, with City Hall behind the photographer. The street behind has the same shape as in this photo. It's taken in the morning.
  • Niall McAuley said:
    Very good, Sharon: new Streetview.
