Hopefully the (apparent) change today to the Flickr UI doesn't affect the commentary on this brilliant shot. I passed through this junction twice a day for many years - and yet it looks at once very different (delightfully so) and so familiar. Am loving the sidecar. Obligatory Google StreetView with the (oft derided and appallingly brutalist) shopping centre. A more recent movement might hopefully bring Phibsboro back in the direction of this near idyllic Eason shot :)

The hat of the presumed Garda suggests that he is not a DMP constable, which points to post-independence. Yet there are no cars or evidence of cars, and the sidecar attached to the motorbike looks very very old, The straw boater on the man at the corner suggests mid-20s at the latest although the ladies dresses seem to indicate much earlier. Hmmm...

BultacoFan And yet, the Daily Mail news poster speaks of the "British Fleet" and (I think) the "Kaiser". This one's going to be a goodie (technical term)! A "Finance Bill" in the Irish Times - it was ever thus. And I think the Freeman's Journal is exercised about an Imperial Congress? I should have gone to Specsavers!

BRITISH FLEET COMMANDED BY THE KAISER Say what?

Yes, in 1914 apparently: from Trove: BRITISH FLEET AT KIEL KAISER ASSUMES COMMAND

LE JUL 1911 -> DEC 1912 Looks like a London registration - if so after July 1911 www.oldclassiccar.co.uk/registrations/le.htm

Are we 100% sure it is Cavendish Row? That church and everything looks different in Google van Tootle.

Cabra Road I think

I think I see the flag of West Germany. Ireland beat them 3-0 in a friendly on the 25th of November 1956

[Aside} Mildly annoyed that the fine St Peter's Church didn't boast a clock back in 1956. There is one there now - maps.app.goo.gl/Barrefpd2RdiogkT8

Edit - There was a clock in 1915 - catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000290817
