Emmet St. OSI Street View

From Ian T Edwards's photstream

I see Emmet Street is called Blossom Gate Street now

Re Sports Poster - the top line says Gaelic Athletic Association From www.banteerhistory.ie/images/Hillary/1909.pdf Michael O Callaghan Inchemay and Arthur O Sullivan Nadd won All Ireland titles in the All Ireland sports held under GAA rules at Mallow on July 18th 1909. Michael O Callaghan won the four mile flat championship from M. Hourigan Ballingarry 2nd. On the last lap the Banteer man won going exceedingly strong and finished up with plenty to spare. Amid much excitement he received a standing ovation. Arthur O Sullivan won the mile championship from R. Barry Glanworth So looks like your 1909 is correct I would suggest August 1909

www.census.nationalarchives.ie/reels/nai002736270/ Daniel Clery - Draper in Sarsfield Street He has children aged 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, and 7 - early to bed and early to rise makes a man healthy wealthy and the father of a large family!!

Now called Ashe street.

StreetView today.

The NIAH lists the red-brick corner building noted above (37 Ashe Street) as 1896, so that's an earliest date. It could be a little later, as the OS 25" surveyed in 1898 does not show this building (with the corner cut at an angle for a doorway).

The YMCA building is from 1861, no help.

I'd so love to see NLI on Historypin - imagine this image overlayed on Google Streetview to create a Then & Now

Is the windmill missing it''s sails? Was it derelict then?

[http://www.flickr.com/photos/eyelightfilms] Certainly no sign of sails...

Not very different today in StreetView

Blennerville Swing Bridge on historic OSI maps maps.osi.ie/publicviewer/#V1,481512,613268,7,9 The swing bridge is across a ship canal. Over the river is the Tralee & Blennerville Steam Railway www.geograph.ie/photo/1398746

The windmill is from 1790, per the DIA. It was derelict from 1850.
