The one in Co. Dublin. Apparently although it's now on Main Street (Streetview) it has moved around a bit: "In 1865 there was a huge controversy over whether or not the cross should be removed completely. Instead the cross was moved and a new base was built for it. Having been at a few locations, the cross is now on Main Street. The present day cross is smaller with parts having been removed from it."

That's a milestone beside it giving distances to Dublin and Kingstown (1 7/8 miles? Sounds about right.)

25" OSI Map showing Market Cross and M.S. for milestone, which probably is the position of the cross in the photo above, and definitely this Lawrence collection shot.

Sharon Corbet The modern Central Café is at #42, which confirms that the cross in this shot is in the position marked in the OSI 25". Temple Road has been widened since, and the shops labelled Magrath as well as Marsden in the Lawrence and this Mason from a different date are gone now.

Marie Magrath was a Retired Draper in 1901.

If ya wann get a head, get a h.. ... or some spats. And whilst you're at it give all the wimmin a gas detector to carry.

My great-grandfather was one of the sinkers at this colliery his name was Richard Lathlane. Great historical photo thanks for listing it.

No lack of safety equipment here, should come out as clean as we went in.

I think there's only one man without some sort of facial hair.

The Lord Lieutenant in 1914 was Edmond de la Poer. I don't think it is the impressively bearded man who has a more mayoral-looking chain of office.

Tne 'movers and shakers' of their day.

The mayor in 1914 was Richard Power, the name Power is derived from Poer, keep it in the family.

Bwana_Samaki Yep, I was assuming the chain is being worn by Waterford's Lord Mayor, and that the Lord Lieutenant (thank you very much for Edmond de la Poer) might be the gentleman seated in front?
