Robert French - Gas Lamp no. 313

Couldn't resist the clarity of this one - so sharp that you can see the number on the gas lamp. Plus it's great to see the original position of our beautiful "bollards" ( nlireland/6509876797 ) . And a clear run of businesses along D'Olier Street, including our first ever Hosier/Glover, I think (with a very weird sign).....Date: 1871 (thanks to a concerted effort from all commenters and Niall McAuley)..NLI Ref.: L_CAB_01233 ( vtls000339002 )
