There was a barricade across the street in front of the Hotel at one point, see pictures here at Limerick City Museum from the Illustrated London News, Saturday 29 July 1922

The caption from one of those images, very similar to this one: WITH CAPTAIN HANNON, ONE OF THE WOUNDED.

I don't think the cheeky chappie wounded in this one is Captain Hannon though, the Captain looks to be taller and more elegant.

From the blurb for the book The Battle for Limerick City: The opening shots of the Irish Civil War in Limerick city were fired on 11 July 1922. The city was of vital strategic importance in the fight for control of the newly independent Ireland, and both Free State and republican troops were determined to secure the city for their respective causes. At the outset the republicans controlled the citys four military barracks and Thomond and Sarsfield bridges. The Free State forces held the custom house, Limerick prison, the courthouse, William Street RIC barracks and Cruises Hotel. Battle lines were drawn and over the course of the following two weeks, fighting raged throughout the city until superior numbers and arms gave victory to the Free State army.

Niall McAuley Definitely not Captain Hannon! So July in 1922 then, thanks Niall. (Still trying to have a proper look at the Illustrated London News photo, but our interweb is playing up today)
