I think this is the right spot - streetview - goo.gl/maps/q3D8PHUpVhr
Edit: Or maybe a bit further back to include Sir John Gray's statue - goo.gl/maps/KuyKpzxtFhS2

In this Thomas Westropp photograph taken from the pillar and dated 18th May 1916, the remaining ruins of the Hibernian bank above have been demolished.
So taken between Mon 24th April and 18th May 1916.
Edit:
Another Westropp from the day before (17th May) showing men within the rubble of the demolished bank. So Pre 17th May 1916

I had absolutely no idea that there was ever a Sinn Féin bank. Thank you for this fascinating piece of history.
