memorialhall

The Apprentice Boys Memorial Hall. Still there, I can't get quite this angle in Streetview.

Per the DIA, opened 1877, extended 1935-37.

L_ROY_04317 nearby in the catalogue is a general view of Derry and includes the clock face in the guildhall from 1891

Flickr is sometimes amazing! In 2015 via Tony Tomlin I am sure we have discussed this building and its extensions before, but cannot find where ...

In L_CAB_03655 we are looking up the street, and can see the First Presbyterian church before it got its 1903 Tetrastyle Roman Corinthian Portico. Would the portico be visible here if present? Hard to say. But check the lamps on the pillars outside that church - in todays they are clearly square gas lanterns, in 03655 they are globes. foyle civic trust has a different reverse view with the portico and square gas lamps, quoting 1910. And L_ROY_02886 is another reverse view, no portico, squared lamps. So maybe the round lamp one is the earliest?

There is a reverse view at 10:00, an hour and ten minutes earlier - what was Mr French up to? - catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000317417 (with a dog)

The methodists have replaced their church with a smaller horribler one. Edit - no, the methodist hall is where it always was. It looks like there was a RC church on the hill that's just not visible now. Seems to be a couple of trees in the way

NO! Wrong again! The gas lamp has disappeared between the two photos . . .
