    It hasn't changed much at all.

    Talk about a small affair? What a tiny crowd at a market in a town in Ireland, there are barely 100 people in the whole square and there's not a whole lot of produce on sale either. The pile of clothes behind the young lad with the bit of a stick appear to be uniforms with bright metal buttons and there is little else for sale in evidence. Compare this with the shot of the market in Galway a couple of months back? I found this copy of the same image in colour on Google! www.google.com/imgres?hl=en&safe=active&sa=N&...

    Swordscookie Ahhh, that would be a colourised postcard from Lawrence Photographic Studios. Did I add the link here from last week's blog? All about a researcher "going places" with our Lawrence postcards...

    Cuddly Nutter Any of the businesses here still on the go? Duffy's, Moville Hotel? And I think shop second from left is Merger's! Is that a plausible name?

Old water wheel in Moville.

    There's a rusty 'thing' sticking out where (I think) the mill would have been, behind the FIAT garage. Could it be the old wheel spindle? Streetview - goo.gl/maps/WKYPs1g8bio89M519 Edit - WRONG !

    The outflow looks deliberate from the map; there's no runoff shown inline with the race.

Pinafores, hoops, skipping ropes and peelers

    All the children fully shod and two restaurants!
    The RIC man sports the new cap, which limits the date range.
    Looks circa 1900
  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
    Suck Diesel The street falling away behind them probably leads down to the sea so that might explain the restaurants but every child well shod is somewhat at odds with the other dress,

    National Library of Ireland on The Commons Yes, streetview shows the sea in the distance

    Many of the children are holding satchels. Perhaps a school outing? I seem to remember that the WR&S pics are all 1900 to 1905 or some similar range. There was never a railway, and we are before the motor bus, so the children are likely local? But there were passenger steamers running to Moville, the children could be from Derry on a trip.
