    All gone now, streetview can't get close

    I think this is a relatively early view (?1890-ish by the bowler hats?). Another Eblana / Lawrence shows more creeper on the building on the right, a lawn garden beyond, and trees planted where the fence is - Spot the Differences -

    I can read one of the badges - "The Church Lads Brigade".

    Congratulation for your beautiful Album.
  • Sharon Corbet said:
    There's some info on the various badges here which may help with dating.
  • Niall McAuley said:
    Not an exact match, but from this wikipedia page on the Brigade (which still exists): Sergeant (three chevrons and a green sash with a button emblazoned with the C.L.B. crest) could be the left middle back row, and: Warrant officer, first class (two crowns, one on each arm, and a drill cane) right middle back row (although here he is wearing two pips on his cap).
  • Niall McAuley said:
    As the name suggests the Church lad's Brigade (and the Church Girl's Brigade) are associated with the Church of England (and presumably Ireland). So this is probably a CoI church or hall behind, in Waterford.
