Edit - 15 July 1926 was a Thursday Twattleday ...

Here is Mr. Timothy Tobin of William Street, an Insurance Agent.

He works for the Royal Liver Friendly Society.

His daughter niece Mary is a clerk there.

I think this is probably the office staff on an outing, and Mary may be here.

The clean shaven man seated 3rd from our right looks rather like the young woman at his feet... Tim and Mary?

Shepard, of the Committee of Management, and Mr. Dempsey, of the Irish Sub-Committee Following the inspection, the entire staff, including the deputation, were entertained by the Manager, Mr. Tobin, at his residence, No. 10 William street. A photograph of the party having been taken in the pretty garden attached to Mr. Tobin's house. they adjourned to the dining-room. where 25 guests sat down. to a sumptuous repast.

So that's location sorted.

yes, working dog ! instead of, as happens in many of the catalogue, people just standing around or leaning against walls. This could suggest to others that Irish people are a bit on the easy side . I am going to show this image around to see if any former colleagues can hint on the sheep breed. Danny , be reassured the sheep will never be in control 🐐 but goats will

The ladies outfit suggests later in the date range.

Niall McAuley ... as do the enormous telegraph poles! I thought the lady was one-legged until I megazoomed her! There are a number of Eason and Lawrence photos of this street, and I think they can be organised chronologically by the number of cross-beams on the telegraph poles. BUT ... there is another Eason photo of further down the street which has a Ford Model T (photographer's?) and lower poles with less cross-beams, implying earlier than today's photo. Mr "Eason" must have gone to Newbridge twice ... catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000558240 EDIT - we were there previously; see comments ...
