Based on nothing more than the shape of the door, I'll guess that this is Patrick St. rather than Parnell St.

It looks like one of these doors: goo.gl/maps/ARF3Lr2vjCd64JSz5

It's actually across the road: www.irishtimes.com/news/social-affairs/historic-dublin-ba... Edit: Only just realised this is Parnell St - see below

I haven't found a picture of the door shut on Parnell Street, so I can't rule it out either.

Here we are: Could just as easily be Parnell St.: goo.gl/maps/SsDhj7UFHXHzb1F36

The National Library of Ireland on The Commons is always amazing! In 1966, nine years earlier -

There's a Movietone report on Youtube of the lying in state and funeral.

Yea!! ., and he had to die during summer holidays so no days off school. patriot? huh!!

His death in August also caused problems for his old school, who had been asked to provide an honour guard at Linden convalescent home for his removal. My brother and I were drafted in as we lived locally. It was interesting to see the Fianna Fáil shadow cabinet walk up the drive, especially CJ Haughey and David Andrews walking side-by-side, a metre apart in height and even more in politics!

an Austin, a VW beetle, a Morris Minor and a Ford Capri (?). I love the phrase traffic treacle - when traffic returns I think I will pirate your idiom

Streetview The Kennedy's Bar sign appears to be still there. But the buildings either side are gone.

sorry there is no VW, it's another Austin, is it a Princess (?)

Foxglove The red one behind the Morris Minor? It's an 1100, possibly an Austin but it could also be the Morris sibling. I can't see a Capri in the shot. The beige car is a Hillman Avenger. The white car behind looks as if it might be a Fiat 1100R and the dark-coloured car entering the junction is a Vauxhall Viva. While most of the cars are, indeed, 1960s models (and VZC 480 is getting long in the tooth) the Viva and the Avenger are 1970s cars so I would guess that the photo might be from 1973 on?

I spy a Hillman Avenger, which appeared in February 1970. So the date range is 1970s, not 1960s. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hillman_Avenger via Andrew~Henderson
