    Somewhere near the Marine Hotel, Sutton Cross ?? Googlesphere - goo.gl/maps/26jpzKbqMNveNq6J7 Satellite 3D - www.google.com/maps/@53.3892929,-6.1132911,71a,35y,123.65...

    "The Hotel was built in 1897 in what was a sleepy outlying area of Dublin City. The Hotel was then known as the Golfers Hotel later becoming the Strand Hotel and finally in 1913 the Marine Hotel. It was one of the first businesses to have a telephone, its number being “Sutton 25”. The Gerarty sisters owned and managed the Hotel until 1959 when it was purchased by Oswald Johnson who built a seawater indoor swimming pool, a most unique feature at the time. ..."

    The 25" map calls it the "Strand Hotel". The 1901 tram to Howth would be visible in the photo if it was built, so possibly before 1901. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hill_of_Howth_Tramway

    Gardens for a very newly built row of houses, by the looks of it.

    Are you sure Gay Byrne is not in the car? Lovely photograph, pity they did away with the trams, can you imagine the tourist attraction they would be today?

    Swordscookie Never mind the tourists, it'd be great for Dubliners! Love the Luas, but it just doesn't have the same glamour as these beasts...

    Sheba78 In the Irish Independent from 1 June 1959, it was reported that there were posters on front and back of the very last tram, saying: "Farewell dear friends, this is the end: we've travelled miles and miles; for eight and fifty years we shared your laughter, tears and smiles. 'Tho some may say we're worn out, expensive or too slow, we brought you safely up and down in sunshine rain or snow."
