    Betting on 1898 for the date! I prefer the photo with Mr Merry and his barrow. Or is it one of his lads? catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000589979

    beachcomber australia I thought it was a bit blurry, so went for this one and its Seville oranges.
  • beachcomber australia said:
    All four Merry's house photos were taken at different times - see the displays in the doorway. And the blinds and curtains ...
  • beachcomber australia said:
    Yikes! Merry's is still going strong. Since 1868 - merrys.ie/our-story/ Edit - still going strong in Dungarvan. nb similar typeface in streetview - goo.gl/maps/cCEcVoPEtAaefxen6

    www.flickr.com/photos/oxfordshirechurches/33994835794/in/... "FP stands for fire plug. Prior to fire hydrants firemen would dig down to the water main and bore a hole in it – the hole would fill with water that they could use for firefighting. Once the fire was extinguished they would hammer a bung or ‘plug’ into the pipe and backfill the hole, leaving an FP mark on the building for future reference. The term stuck when hydrants were introduced and their locations were marked with FP signs. ". in this case 32ft off wall.

    I haven't thought of Burlington Bertie in ages www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hb1VavOM2uc I doubt this gent is a male impersonator.
  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
    La Belle Province Perish the thought!
  • Niall McAuley said:
    The Ordnance Survey Historical Map shows that the Imperial and Adelphi hotels were both on the site where the modern Tower Hotel is built. So, closer to the river than you have it now, the far side of Lombard Street. Adelphi Quay is still so named, even though the hotel name is gone.
  • La Belle Province said:
    National Library of Ireland on The Commons And pass the smelling salts!
  • Paul O'Farrell said:
    The Imperial was where the Tower Hotel is today. The Imperial is the building on the right in this old view
    Adelphi Hotel & Waterford Steamship Co.

    This photo was taken shortly after the demolition of the Adelphi,

    That is a super image!! I have just been listening again to the Forsythe saga and the chapter on the funeral of old Aunt Anne. People were invited to the funeral and there was strict precedence in who went in which carriage. This is really wonderful with the hearse and detail in the coffin!

  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
    Vab2009 This is the one of the hearse that I really wanted, but unfortunately have no higher res yet! Wonder what happened if someone got out of place? Was outrage expressed with the raise of an eyebrow? Was there a system of whip semaphore between drivers?
  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
    Niall McAuley Go raibh maith agat!
  • derangedlemur said:
    Odd that there's no engine sheds visible. I wonder when they were built - they should be blocking the view to Elmhurst.
