A view of Sheares Street, near the Mardyke Park in Cork, in about 1940. The street was previously known as Nile Street before its name was changed to honour the Cork-born Sheares’ brothers, Henry (1753-1798) and John (1766-1798), members of the Society of United Irishmen who were executed following the 1798 Rebellion.

A print titled ‘Small talk on Shandon Street, Cork’. The print is dated to c.1940. From the eighteenth century onward, Shandon Street was known as major site for commercial activity on the north-side of Cork. Some of the women in the image are wearing a traditional black shawl. Many working-class Irish women survived as street traders, selling fruit, vegetables and second-hand clothing. In Cork they were known as ‘the Shawlies’ because of the distinctive, traditional black shawls they wore on the streets.
