Strawberry Beds, Dublin

A view of the Strawberry Beds in Dublin in about 1910. Running alongside the northern banks of the River Liffey between the villages of Chapelizod and Lucan, the Strawberry Beds were so-called on account of the fruits which were cultivated and sold there in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. It was also traditionally a popular honeymoon destination for Dubliners. The bridge, spanning the River Liffey, is the Farmleigh Bridge, also known as the Silver Bridge, Guinness Bridge or Strawberry Beds Bridge. It is now disused and largely derelict.

Mother cradling a child

A view of a mother cradling a young child on a hillside overlooking a traditional rural cottage in a forested location probably in County Cork.

St. Mary of the Angels, Church Street, Dublin

A view of St. Mary of the Angels, Church Street, Dublin, from a slightly elevated position. The print shows the building before the addition of the Sacred Heart Chapel which was built as an aisle church in 1908. The caption refers to the ordination of Fr. Theobald Mathew OSFC (1790-1856) in the previous chapel on Church Street in 1809. With cover. A copy of this image is extant at CA-PH-1-71.

Lay Temperance Society, Dublin

A large group of both men and women (both sitting and standing) in St. Mary of the Angels, Church Street, Dublin. Most of the individuals are wearing Father Mathew Temperance Society badges and medals. They are almost certainly members of the lay temperance association attached to the church.

Graiguenamangh, County Kilkenny

A view of Lower Main Street in Graiguenamangh, County Kilkenny, in about 1905. The image was probably taken (or acquired) by Fr. Angelus Healy OFM Cap. (1873-1953), a Capuchin friar who was a native of Graiguenamangh. A horse drawn carriage (called a ‘brake’) can be seen carrying passengers on the right of the road. These were extensively used in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries as a means of public transport and conveyance. Going in the opposite direction is what appears to be some sort of parade of horses and jockeys (in apparently elaborate silks).

Levensau High Bridge, Kiel Canal, Germany

A view (from onboard a ship) of the Levensau High Bridge, a high level arch bridge that spans the Kiel Canal in the German state of Schleswig-Holstein. Built in 1894, it is the oldest bridge crossing the the canal.
