The upper poster "Lent Preachers" says 1865 on it, and the lower one refers to Sunday next, 19th March. 19th March 1865 was indeed a Sunday.

Judging by the steps in the background it's from inside looking out, though the steps seem to be slightly different now: goo.gl/maps/8rZJyVidmLxTC7na6 Edit: No it is outside looking in - the angel above the door is on the outside. goo.gl/maps/sQdZfNneDmRAU1wg8

The "steps" are actually that tomb all the way over on the far wall.

There's a Female Orphan House marked on the 25", at the junction of the NCR and Annamoe Road. The Orphanage and associated church are gone, replaced by the ugly modern Park House.

At wikipedia, and a longer page at historyeye. The charity's own history page. 7 entries at the DIA, dated 1792-1937.

I think she may be The Wicked Witch of the West, rushing to catch the tram, 'cos she left her broomstick in Oz. Interesting to compare with a LOC image on flickr (ignore some idiot's remarks about Saint Patrick!) -
John Spooner said:
Was there some special anniversary or occasion for people to put out so many flags? And what's the quartered one on the left?
National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
beachcomber australia Yeah, what an idiot! ;) Well, at least we know the trams were electrified in 1898, so circa 1900 is ok for the moment...

John Spooner There must have been, mustn't there? Never seen such an array of flags in our photos without some event or other... Naval visit perhaps?

Father Theobald Mathew (1790 - 1856) - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Father_Mathew Statue 1864 - www.corkpastandpresent.ie/places/stpatricksstreet/selecte... There were four gas lamps later - catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000040388 And later still, tram poles and wires - catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000320282

this picture is before 1892, when the first horse tram ran.

Via Trove, this 1864 description - "The greatest event of the month [October 1864], however, has been the inauguration of Father Mathew's statue at Cork, which took place upon the 10th instant, amidst the most gratifying demonstration from all parties. The chisel of the illustrious [John] Hogan has given to us the placid face and the majestic form of the great Apostle, giving us a vivid idea of that inward power which enabled him to sway countless multitudes and subjugate them to his will. The priest, the father, the friend is gone but his spirit still dwells among us, visible in the improved habits not only of our own people but of all civilized nations who now happily look upon drunkenness as a vice and esteem temperance a virtue. ...

There is an earlier stereo pair without the ankle-biter bollards or "The New York House" at No. 12. Might help with dating - catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000564283

Noticing that gas lamps, along the street that narrow it to before 1927. esbarchives.ie/2017/09/18/connecting-cork-to-the-national... So, were there tax collection records in Cork or Census, back between 1864 to 1930? Could identify one or two business and then cross-check tax and census records. Furneral notices for business owners along the street would also narrow it down, because it is likely the business did not extend much beyond passing. Clothing, certain hats worn, during a particular span opf time would also help. Further . . . This reference states there were electric trams with overhead powerlines in Cork, from 1901. And, I assume they were horse drawn from December 1898. www.askaboutireland.ie/learning-zone/primary-students/loo... www.askaboutireland.ie/aai-files/assets/libraries/an-chom... Wiki cites 22 December 1898 upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/1/1e/Patrick_Stree... upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/3/3d/Patrick_Stree... upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/8/86/A_street_scen... (Fergus O'Connor, Photographer) So, which is correct ESB reference or askaboutireland reference for primary schools? I would question the dating of the reference here: catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000320282 Nobody in uniform, street is quite busy, so good economic times. So, assume sometime between 1864 and 1898.
