    Love the posters, and the people along the street!
    That poor little donkey, though!!
  • Swordscookie said:
    Oh I love it! Positively Dickensian scenes with remarkable clarity. My 12 megapixel camera would be hard pressed to take a shot as good as that. Fantastic!
  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:

    The wooden figure above the shop on the left reminds me of a wooden statue that was once on display in the old Civic Museum on Sth William street.

    I thought we had this one already, or did we just reference it while digging through some other B&Ts photo?
  • derangedlemur said:
    It looks like Patrick's Street, at a guess: maps.google.ie/?ll=51.89984,-8.470695&spn=0.009149,0....
  • derangedlemur said:
    Actually, maybe not. HE on the background suggests that the row of houses in the background are quite a bit lower than the street in the foreground (though the image is pretty murky).

    The ruins of Sunner's Chemists perhaps.

    During the War of Independence Cork was one of the main centres of resistance to British Rule. In one of the worst atrocities committed during the War of Independence. British forces deliberately set fire to several blocks of buildings along the east and south sides of St. Patrick's Street during Saturday night 11 December 1920 and the following Sunday morning. The City Hall and the nearby Carnegie Library were also completely destroyed by fire. From www.corkpastandpresent.ie/history/historyofcorkcity/early...
