    Cork. I wonder if this is the back of the
    Court House on the right, looking towards
    Washington Street. The photographer
    would then have his back to St Francis
    Liberty Street.

    there is a cat and it could be a dog in the distance. memories as a child of this style of military patrolling (NI) when half of the troops would split walking backwards.
  • Carol Maddock said:
    Foxglove I'm probably lucky. Never saw that (NI) patrolling in person, just on television.
  • John Spooner said:
    Foxglove Carol Maddock One of my memories of cycling through Newry (on my way from Rosslare to Larne) some time in the early 1990s was of 4 soldiers escorting a policemen on his beat. There were 2 on each side of the road, ahead and behind the policeman, looking around them and moving from doorway to doorway. What struck me most was that the locals (including the policeman) were going about their business as if the soldiers weren't there. I suppose that for them it was just part of everyday life.

    Looks like a courthouse near the top of the hill. That's not very common.

    Or maybe not - the next picture makes it look just like a big house: catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000219029

    Next picture along seems to have a Hassett's shop. Let's see what the census has to say on the matter...
