    The pier has been extended since the photo, and the steps shown here replaced. The 1902 map (OS-8-1-1-2 at the OSNI historical site) shows the pier as in the photo, the photographer would have been right at the tip. The Pier is not changed on the 1920 map, so no help in dating this one... .

    Ardglass grew from a place of little note in the 13th century to a modestly prosperous port in the 15th century.It was an important town and port in the Middle Ages, but no harbour works seem to have been constructed until after 1812. Then William Ogilvie, who had acquired the Ardglass estate, had a harbour built. Further extensions to the pier and a lighthouse were made, but in 1838 a great storm undermined the lighthouse which fell into the sea along with the end of the pier. Work on the piers was completed by 1885 and they remain in use to this day.

    Niall McAuley Niall, my plug-in for that map is misbehaving. Could I trouble you for a Street View?

    Online Exhibition UCD www.ucd.ie/archives/html/exhibit2.htm The Fishing Industry, Ardglass, Co. Down 'Ardglass, Co. Down. 1911. Fishing Industry. Local sailing fleet being displaced by English steam drifters which land and sell their catch, and get back to the fishing banks before the sailing boats reach the market. As a result of our visit some of the fishermen have obtained loans from the Department to equip their boats with motors. It is interesting that we see both Steam and sail in this photo.

    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?.

    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!
