  maps.google.ie/maps?q=Kildare,+kildare&hl=en&ll=5... Funny there is a market on site in the Street view also.

• DannyM8 said:

  According to the Statutes of Henry VI (1458) a market had been held in Kildare ‘from time whereof memory runs not,’ and an official weekly market, to be held on Thursdays, was authorised by Henry VIII in the Charter of Kildare of 1515

  It can't be too hard to find that ecclesiastical looking building on the right. I'll guess somewhere round Thomas St to start with, though no doubt Beaner will beat me to the exact location.

  derangedlemur Okay, accepting your first bid of Thomas Street-ish.

• Robert Lesti said:

  : ) Cool Lady, cool boys. : )

• Niall McAuley said:

  I believe that is a morris minor van behind the boys.

  What an unnatural pose! Poor Linda O'Reilly looks like a store-window dummy, with her stiletto stuck in the muck. Is that a genuine 'beehive' hairdo?

March 19, 1961

  The Signal Cabin is not itself on Albert Quay, it can be seen here on the 25" OSI map. The South City Link Road was built on this old railway. I can tell this is the Signal Cabin in question from this paired photo in the archive: Station from Signal Cabin, Albert Quay, Cork City, Co. Cork As we often find with O'Dea's pictures, this was taken on 19 March 1961, and per wikipedia, Regular passenger services were withdrawn on 1 April 1961

  Thanks Niall McAuley - You are of course correct! I have updated the map location accordingly. And also added a short note to the description. Much appreciated!

  The caption should read Bill Canty taking a breather.
