There's an interesting mix of uniforms & civilian clothes in this picture. The date of the picture would suggest that this might have been part of the Battle of Kilmallock.

possibly not "Red Cross" as one of them is definitely in military uniform - first sighting (!) of army medical corps ...

A Google image search finds a version in the University College Dublin, Desmond Fitzgerald photographs, with this blurb - " Photograph by W.D. Hogan of three Irish Free State Army soldiers, two members of a medical corps, tending the leg of a wounded man; one soldier is supporting the man's head; the wounded man is dressed in civilian clothes but is possibly wearing a gun belt.

25 July 1922 was a Tuesday. On the previous Tuesday, 18 July, Mr Hogan was in Dublin with a makeshift ambulance -

This was taken on the same day (25 July) - it might provide more clues - catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000194509

They are marching to the barracks....on the other side of that bridge.

Lovely!

The building at top right of this one is the same as the building at top left of this (earlier) one nearby:

Niall McAuley Spotted your note for the "works" on the bridge. Was it a swing bridge?
Niall McAuley said:
The narrow part of the bridge nearest the camera was a lifting section to allow sailing ships past. You can see some cogs in the mechanism at the bottom of the narrow section. This has since been replaced with a wider but uglier flat concrete span visible here:

Things in 1922 were unchanged since the the GeoHive OS 25" (which has an incorrect survery date of 1888 attached, but is actually after 1905.) The Bank is still there, the Woollen Mills burned down in the 1940s and a Radisson Blu is there now, the Methodist Church is still there but the steeple is gone, and the Post Office is gone too, replaced by a rather ugly Bank building.
