This photograph, which must have been taken
after 1909, shows Boyd's grocer's shop, mentioned earlier,
and the newly refurbished & renovated building at the corner
with Park Street. This new building included [Griffith's
Nos. 28, 27 & 26].
From 1910 [No. 28] was occupied by the
Bank of Ireland until 1925 when it was taken over by John B.
& Wm. A. McLeese. They occupied it until the 1960s when it
was taken over by R. McMeekin & Sons.
In 1909 James G. Young occupied [No. 27].
By the 1920s it was held by Joseph Cameron, Thomas Giffen
and John Edgar. By the 1950s this shop had become J. & W.
Cameron's grocer's shop.
After 1909 [No. 26] lay vacant for a time.
Eventually it was occupied by Thomas J. Moore in 1919. From
1935 it was the premises of T. J. Moore (Cycle Agent) who
had become a Cycle & Wireless Dealer & a Photographer by the
1940s. By 1967 it had become The Wimpy Bar.
Note that I have had to simplify the
changes in [Nos. 26 to 28] above. For a more detailed
account of the changes in these three premises after 1909,
see the Griffith's Revisions.
See the next series of photographs for
details of the occupants of these premises before 1909.
