    Good morning Flickroonies and a very happy January Monday to you all. We have some very interesting photographs for your delectation this week beginning with this lovely view of a Public Park possibly in the Dublin area. We hope to see you all during the week and thank you in advance for your visits, comments, favourites and detective work. Have a great week!

    There's a picture of Sandymount Green from 1981 here, which looks fairly similar to me. (Particularly the roof of the building to the left of the tree in the middle.)
  • Niall McAuley said:
    Yes, I think this is Sandymount - just a stones throw from one of our toughest IDs ever! The fountain in the background is marked on the GeoHive OSI 25" map

    My vote is for Sandymount too, see Murphy's Medicines on streetview (not linking well for me), and the tram catenary as seen on Niall McAuley's map. *Grrrr @ flickr re notes*

    If you look at the megazoomable version in the archive, you can zoom in and read the street sign on the building with the shop awnings on it: SANDYMOUNT GREEN The gentleman in the foreground is a) wearing spats and b) playing an invisible drum.

    This Mary made a grreat booboo last evening when uploading some shots to the NLI stream and failed to make them private so as to release one each day:-( The problem was that we had a number of "Tram" shots together and needed to break up the flow with other interests. Sincere apologies to all those who like a daily chase.
  • Niall McAuley said:
    This is a reverse view of this recent shot.

    Lovely day in Sandymount when the Streetview was taken.
  • Niall McAuley said:
    The company Leverett & Frye dates from 1892.
  • Niall McAuley said:
    Ryan, Victualler, #92 is now Michael Byrne and Son, Butcher. Ryan's shop was still there in 1971, according to Thom's!

    Per Wikipedia the trams to Sandymount were electrified in March 1901, earliest date. The trams stopped operating in 1940.
  • Niall McAuley said:
    Those look like horse chestnut trees in flower in the background, so springtime.
  • Niall McAuley said:
    In streetview, we can see that Batts and Murphys have been replaced by an ugly AIB. It looks more modern than the latest possible date here (trams). Edit: looking again, I think the bank just replaced Batt's. The distinctive 1st floor window of Murphy's is still there.

    Niall McAuley Up and at it early today Niall, Thanks, Mary

    Ryans Sandymount House pub was Ryans in this shot, but Fleming in the 1905ish French images.

    A google search suggests Fleming opened in 1893. He was here for the 1911 census.

    We were here before with O'Connor (pub is still Fleming):
