    Now that I screw my monocle in more tightly, is that a Lock Hard in his "official" cap, having a chat with the driver about payment?

    Here's a photo I found on dublin dot ie forums which is actually from the Charles W. Cushman Photograph Collection at Indiana University Archives showing this corner. Abrahams was #1 Dame Street, the laneway at right is Foster Exchange Court, as seen on the OS 25" map at GeoHive.

    It's a shame to see the shops in this condition! The photo in the link above is fantastic- showing things as they should be!! :)

    Niall McAuley Beautiful photo, Niall!
  • Stuart said:
    Interesting to see the whole row of shops are tailors or tailor related trades. The Savile Row of Dublin!
  • Niall McAuley said:
    Yikes! I can't believe I mentioned the incident with the donkey and the choc-ice in my comment! Editing now.

Turkish Bath, Lincoln Place, Dublin

    I think not a brick of this is still standing apart from the pillars of that gate on the right: Streetview
  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
    Thanks Niall McAuley - I had the same thought. It even made me question whether this was correctly labelled - but the gates and corner angle does seem to match. The baths (and building beyond) do look very ornate, so it's intriguing that only the lowly gate posts were "saved"...

    The image in the Archiseek entry doesn't seem to match fully. Although, given that it gives a demolition date of 1970, what we may see here is the last vestiges (the other elements perhaps demolished before Mr Walker captured this shot...) We came across these baths on VictorianBathsDOTOrg when researching the baths in Bray. www.flickr.com/photos/nlireland/27855336191/

    That archiseek page says closed in 1900 (hence, not marked on the 25" map), demolished in 1970.
