    I can see what you mean NLI, it does have a very Dickensian feel to it. What we of the 21st century need to remember is that there was very little change in the mode of dress, means of transport and building methods between the end of the 17th and beginning of the 20th centuries. The first supermarkets were opened in my lifetime and shopping malls and superstores are really a recent innovation. It is an excellent shot and very atmospheric!!

    Swordscookie I'd agree, this pic is certainly pre-1900. Also, notice the cast-iron water pump in the foreground, of the type still seen around the country today. I like the gas lamp on the house corner too. Here's a view of the same location (approx) on Google Street-View maps.google.com/maps?q=Arundel+Square,+Waterford,+Ireland... All the building seen on the right have gone. Stuart.

    Arundel Gate and castle was in the laneway on the extreme right in the picture.
  • desmondg47 said:
    Apologies, Arundel Lane is on the left
  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
    desmondg47 No problem at all, and very good of you to come back and revisit your information on this one ...

    Love, LOVE this photo...what a slice of life. The dog just makes it perfect.

    I’m no Galway boffin, but I would say the Church of Ireland St. Nicholas is on the left, one would be looking in the direction of Shop Street? If so the street according to bing.com maps would be Churchyard Street?.
  • Swordscookie said:
    Look at how crisp and clear the shot is for 1905? Beautiful! Like you NLI I noticed the terrier posing for the camera, he's nearly as camera conscious as the kids against the cart!

    Think this is a little later than the Egg and Foul Market given the growth in the tree on the right. But not much. Egg and Fowl is circa 1905 so I would say 1906 or 07 at 12.12 PM some day
  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
    DannyM8 Well, circa 1905 on the Egg and Fowl Market was speculative... Never firmly established.
  • DannyM8 said:
    National Library of Ireland on The Commons Understand that. But think this is a little older
  • DannyM8 said:
    Think this might be the Egg and Fowl Market also?

    DannyM8 Deffo geese, etc. lying on the ground...
