    Woo Hoo! Congratulations on the first 2,000 Flickr photos. No clock and no dog ...

    Congrats on the milestone! The exhibition sounds great - will fill-in the survey shortly. Not sure when the clock was first installed, but this image must surely be mid-1920s based on fashion alone (and certainly after 1922 as that's when the Clery's building was built/rebuilt) . Also fascinating to me (and may or may not be relevant to date) is that it looks like the Japanese "rising sun" flag is flying above Clery's. Which seems very unusual. As I always thought that was a military/naval ensign....

    From our old favourite, Archiseek (archiseek.com/forum/topic/dublin-street-lighting/): 1920-23 During this period, new rather bizarre looking electric lamps were attached to the swan-neck posts, replacing the earlier globes. Some of these can be seen swinging loosely in the wind in some footage. They survived right up till the end of these grand post's lives.

    Huzzah on 2,000 photos, and the probably 20,000 or more conversations about them! This has to be after August 1922, as the Irish Indo on Saturday, 5 August has a beautiful advert announcing...
    We are glad to announce that our New Building on the old site in Lower O'Connell Street is sufficiently far advanced [rebuilding after 1916 Rising bombardment] for us to open it to our customers and the public on Wednesday August 9th ... NEW CLERY'S is the last word in shopping comfort. We mean to make it - The Shopping Centre of Ireland.
    And the beautiful illustration (not photo) in the ad has no clock!

    There's some information available on "Eastern Lodge/Villa" at the History of Newcastle, Co. Down Facebook, including pictures of the inside, and a couple of pictures of the house over the years. Eastern Villa (later called eastern Lodge) was built around the late 1870s by H Smyth JP, who was a civil engineer and the County Surveyor. He built it with a water tower that ingeniously collected water by gravity, piped from further up the mountain. Mr Smyth lived here until the mid 1890s, when it was taken over by Daniel McCartan, a solicitor, and Clerk of the Town Council. He was still living there in 1918.

    It looks like Wicklow.... Think the mountain is the Sugar Loaf. At a guess it is one of the many roads around that area. The style of house is correct.

    Oops! I was wrong then, sorry!
