    [http://www.flickr.com/photos/littlebee2012] That Orange Hall had opened on Monday, 17 April 1911 though good suggestion.

    What's the roof stretching left from the clock tower? Is it a church with a weird roof and no windows or is it a cinema?

    The lamps on the bridge are still there but the globes have changed a number of times over the years.

    Nice photo. Before I was born & not being Irish- I also don't know what the Hell they were doing, but it seems that it interested many people back then - - -

    Barton was the name of Erskine Childers mother and they were part of the Barton and Guestier wine growing and shipping company. The original Barton was Thomas - is it possible that the two are related. I tried to google the name but did not do too well. It does appear that the Childers family had strong connections to Waterford.

    Swordscookie Well, keep at it! ;) No T. Barton in Waterford in either 1901 or 1911 census...

    Swordscookie Re Barton and Childers, see our OTHER Flickr photostream (that's swanky for you)!

    It may be a red herring, but a "Bovril boat" was a boat used in London to carry sewage out to sea ([en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bovril_Boats]). The small boats in the foreground don't seem to match the description, but perhaps the larger ones in the background do.
