Miscellaneous photographs, circa 1900

These photographs were digitized from books, listed below, held in our Local Studies department. We will add images from other sources over time.  We would welcome the loan of historical photographs from members of the public, so that we could add digital copies to this website.  We would also welcome additional information about photographs already displayed on this website, for example, identifying precise locations or names of currently unidentified individuals. Please contact us at localstudies_library@corkcity.ie.
