An image of the Corpus Christi procession at the Capuchin Friary in Rochestown. This annual celebration held at the friary attracted huge crowds from both the city and county in the first two decades of the twentieth century. People travelled by train, by trap or walked to the friary from Cork city. It was the most popular event of the year in Rochestown until 1926 when the first Cork city procession was held.
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.
