  This must be one of your earliest photos.

  Is it Carrickbrennan? It looks a bit rural to be one of the churchyards in Dun Laoghaire.

  DannyM8 Pretty early alright if it is early 1860s for a photo on our Commons stream. This is one of our earliest on here for which we have an exact date - 10th November 1863, but the very lovely Miss Coddington dates from circa 1852...

  I wonder where it was? I don't see it on the OS historical maps. From Wikipedia article on Dean's Grange (founded 1861): The Burial Act of 1855 resulted in the closure of many of the older churchyards in Dublin and surrounds due to overcrowding. This drove the need to find new lands for cemeteries.

Dublin, but where? Main Street in Blackrock!

  Wondering if that grocer at no. 2 might be Robert Ward? Shaking fist at placement of gas lamp!

  O Mac By George, I think you've got it! Did it look familiar to you straight away? Location Identified tag added - thank you.

• O Mac said:

  I saw those spires from the top of a 7A for eight years."The foundation stone of the present parish church was laid on the feast of the birth of St. John the Baptist, 24th June 1842 by Fr. Theobald Matthew OFM Cap., on a site donated by Lord Cloncurry (Valentine Lawless). It was opened for the use on 14th September 1845"

• Niall McAuley said:

  Beaten to it! The church tower is quite distinctive. No tram-tracks, so it's before 1879.

  The Castle is, of course, still there: Streetview

• Niall McAuley said:

  The Black Bull is still at Number 12!

  The Grassmarket

• Niall McAuley said:

  The Grassmarket site says: With a drinks license thought to have existed since it was a 16th Century coaching inn, the present building replaced The Beehive Hotel in the 1860's. A close look at streetview gives a date of 1868 for the building which replaced numbers 18 and 20.

  Niall McAuley So 1863-1868 then? Brilliant narrowing down...
