    Trying but failing to make witty remark about the third policeman. Three identical moustaches though. They could almost be brothers.

    Seems fairly unchanged: maps.google.com/maps?q=54.315,-7.406&ll=54.314521,-7....

    [http://www.flickr.com/photos/eyelightfilms] The chap on the right has the most luxurious moustache!

    Skink74 Wow, it really is unchanged! Even the gabling and the archway are still there...

    It's not on the 1830s 6", but appears on the 1900ish 25"

    Gone by the 1930s 6" Cassini, so probably destroyed in 1920?
  • Niall McAuley said:
    I think the RIC men at the door are wearing pill box hats, so before 1900.
  • Niall McAuley said:
    The friary behind is from 1867, no help with dates
  • Niall McAuley said:
    We saw nearby 3397 before, 1891-1903

Heavy traffic expected soon

    "Early in 1888 a decision was taken to build a power loom factory on a site in Victoria Street, with capacity for 500 looms. The original chimney shaft at the factory was 150 feet high, the tallest in Lurgan." www.geocaching.com/geocache/GC2PNVY_linen-heritage-lurgan...

    I see Lurgan Model Primary School just above the gasometers.

    J Herbert "Established 1883" (written on gable middle foreground). Joseph Herbert is to be found in the 1901 Census but he and his family are gone by 1911. Would suggest we're looking at Pre 1911
