    A wonderful capture of times past. And look - more horses (and a donkey, bottom left) than motor vehicles!
  • Swordscookie said:
    What's interesting in this excellent shot is the police or security presence? There are four outriders around that carriage, two more are going out of focus at the bottom and there are two an RIC?Policemen standing and walking between the tramrails. Some dignitary on his way someplace?

Hansom cabs on the right with the hoods, soldiers/policemen on horseback, dignitary in landau, motor car in the distance, tram on the left, donkey and cart further left foreground, horse and drey left foreground, jaunting car on the left parked, and shanks mare all over the place!!!

    The entrance to the 1907 Irish International Exhibition, Ballsbridge. See archiseek.com/2012/1907-irish-international-exhibition-du... for a better copy of same image. Built on 52 acres that Lord Pembroke had promised to the Pembroke District Council for a public park, lying between the River Dodder, Morehampton Road and Clyde Road. The site later became Herbert Park. All that remains of the exhibition is the pond which was part of the water slide and one of the two bandstands, the other going to Bray.

    Suck Diesel My first instinct was Harcourt Street as well but that arch, which looks so elegant, is all wrong! Morning Mary will have to make adjustments.

    Swordscookie Looks like some palace from the days of the Raj, except for the heavy overcoats. There are much better versions of this image on internet than this one.

    Just to th eright of the lady crossing the street is an unusually wide horse drawn cart. Any idea if it was a special piece of equipment?

    Micheál Cattigan Maybe just the humvee of its day.
