Summary

Description

Taken by photographer, G.W.V. Whitcroft.

You can compare this view of Lurgan with its companion photo (taken approximately 100 years earlier) as part of the Lawrence Photographic Project 1990/1991, where one thousand photographs from the Lawrence Collection in the National Library of Ireland were replicated a hundred years later by a team of volunteer photographers, thereby creating a record of the changing face of the selected locations all over Ireland.

For further information on the Lawrence Photographic Project, read all about it on our NLI Blog.

Joefuz has been dying to identify some modern cars for ages, hence this amazing outpouring of vehicle knowledge: "I can see 3 Austin Montegos, 4 Vauxhall Novas, an Astramax van, 2 Ford Escorts (one might be an XR3i), a Renault Traffic van, an RUC Tangi Landrover, a Ford Sierra, a Toyota Liteace, a Mitsubishi Colt, a C Class Mercedes, I think the nose of an Austin Mini Maestro, a Transit van, a Renault 5, a Renault 4 van, a Suzuki Swift, 2 Fiat Pandas and a Nissan Bluebird. The dark grey tail on the right foreground might be a Ford Cortina. The blue car behind the Transit van might be a Peugeot estate. The red car behind the Astramax van might be a Ford Sierra (face lift version, so newer than the one on the other side of the road. The blue car parked in the middle 3rd along might be a 4th Montego. The car being towed by the recovery truck looks to be an old mercedes. The green car in the foreground I think is a Triumph."
