    At the time Larne had a booming incoming tourist trade as it was the gateway to the Glens of Antrim and with a variety of hotels. People from Belfast would go to Larne by train for days out but also there would be visitors on the ferries from Scotland on day trips - Stranraer was only 2 1/2 hours away. This explains the "Irish Souvenir Warehouse" branding which was aimed primarily at Scottish visitors.

    Welch's Irish Views. The Robert Welch photographs in Birmingham Central Library form part of the Sir Benjamin Stone Collection; acquired by Benjamin Stone between 1904 and 1906. Archives and Heritage Service hold more than 400 of his photos. Robert Welch, born in 1859, had a photographic studio in Belfast. Though he never married he had many friends who spoke of his helpfulness and generosity, he was described as a 'friend to all the world'. He died in 1936. Robert Welch travelled all over Ireland taking photos of the people and their way of life; he advertised himself as an 'ethnographer'. As a commercial photographer, he sold copies to many different organisations. His photos were used as postcards, as illustrations for travel books, and to accompany scientific lectures www.birmingham.gov.uk/cs/Satellite?c=Page&childpagena...

    [http://www.flickr.com/photos/64555638@N00] and there's Merle Streep beside him!!! What a wonderful social commentary Carol, great shot and great material to mull over with a nice cup of tea and (non virtual) sticky bun! The two ladies with veils over their faces as a reminder that the hijab was not the only form of face covering in use. The gentleman with the top hat looking so discomfited by mixing with the hoi-polloi and the casual boater relaxing at the back, a great start to a Flickr week!
