'Oceanic' Liner leaving Cork Harbour

A view of the White Star Liner ‘Oceanic’ leaving Queenstown (now Cobh) Harbour in 1905. Launched in 1899, it was largest ship in the world until 1901. At the outbreak of the First World War, the ship was requisitioned for service in the Royal Navy as an armed merchant cruiser. In September 1914, the ship ran aground off the coast of Shetland and was wrecked. She was the first Allied passenger ship to be lost in the war.

Old Capuchin Friary, Kilkenny

Old Capuchin Friary, Kilkenny

An exterior view of the old Capuchin Friary building on Walkin Street in Kilkenny. There appears to be scaffolding erected in the background. In December 1873, the foundation stone was laid for a new Friary running parallel to Walkin Street. In 1889 a lease was obtained for a small garden adjoining the Friary and in July 1896 the site of the old alms house was obtained from the Most Rev. Abraham Brownrigg (1836-1928), Bishop of Ossory. This allowed for the building of an additional wing to the Friary in 1897. This new wing was located at right angles to Walkin Street and extended to Pennyfeather Lane.
