To narrow the date a little more, other photos have election posters which happened on Wednesday, 7th April 1965 - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1965_Irish_general_election eg - catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000047710

The lovely Elinor seemed to be interested In St George's Church (see 'similar items' in the NLI catalogue), which must have been under some threat in the 1960s. "... The Church of St. Thomas opened in Cathal Brugha Street in 1931, in 1966 St. Georges merged with the parish of St. Thomas's. In 1990 St. George's closed, and it became the parish church of St. George and St. Thomas. ... ... " ... In the 1980s scaffolding had to be erected around the spire because the Portland stone was cracking due to expansion of the iron cramps that held it in place. The Church of Ireland, having tried in vain to raise funds for the restoration of the church, sold the building in 1991 to an actor, Mr Sean Simon, who had plans to turn it into a theatre.[6] After its deconsecration, the bells (which Leopold Bloom heard ringing in Ulysses) were removed to Taney Parish church in Dundrum, while the ornate pulpit was carved up to decorate Thomas Read's pub in Parliament Street.[6] The church in Temple Street then became the Temple Theatre, then a night-club, but further attempts were made to raise public funds for its restoration; first, in 1991, to celebrate Dublin's role as European City of Culture, and later from the Millennium Committee.[6] In 2004 the building found a new purchaser who oversaw extensive restoration and renovation to provide office facilities." From - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/St._George%27s_Church,_Dublin Thanks Elinor for helping to save this wonderful building!
