Such an unusual shot for a film photograph? It is quite different in its approach and composition to most and very interesting for that reason. I was visiting Galway a lot around then but was more interested in rivers and rugby pitches so I can't help with Mullins but the boy reminds me of myself just a few years earlier.

A butchers shop, I think - so the kid is dreaming of mince. A look at Google maps shows that the building is intact but painted a startling lime green - and home to a creperie called Zatsuma. A creperie in Galway City. Who'd have guessed that in 1964?

John Lord Mince, eh? That's what I get for stereotyping children - thinking of a sweet tooth instead of carnivorous tendencies...

This is as close as I can get in Streetview.

Niall McAuley Oh don't talk to me! Spent a good 5 minutes trying to get the same view - slithering up and down Shop Street, muttering ominously that if Mr O'Dea could do it, then so could I. Shamefacedly gave up, but I am bloodied but unbowed. Virtual sticky bun (hot from the wholly imaginary NLI oven) for anyone who can get the same view in Streetview...

Looks a bit like Kinsale. Let us consult Streetview. Edit: Maybe not - there's no bridge.

Niall McAuley said:
Galway, I think. Yes, in this Bing aerial view I see the church tower, the bridge, and the building with the tower across the river.

Niall McAuley said:
I think the photographer is up on st. Nicholas's church.

See the ivy covered ruined wall in the foreground? No ivy today
The building Mr. Hart was in is gone, but the 3 storey building two doors to the right is still there, and in slightly better nick today, so Hart is on Market Street (streetview links fixed, I hope). -
Niall McAuley said:
In the distance, I see trusses of the railway viaduct. The Galway to Clifden line was started in 1890, opened in 1895.

Could be. There's not much left of the houses in the picture.
