    The horse trams started in 1879 per wikipedia, and ran (or walked!) until 1918.

    At left is Alexander Moon's, which remained Moon's until it was absorbed by Brown Thomas.

    According to this Kenny's bookshop page: The building dates from c.1870. It opened initially under the name Farquarson, then it became Farquarson and Moon , then Alexander Moon, then Alexander Moon Ltd. Today it trades under the name Brown Thomas, though most Galwegians still call it Moons.
