The GPO Arcade is a handsome 1920s interior that is more neoclassical than oft-ascribed Art Deco (understandable given the layer of ‘80s bling!). Ranks of Ionic columns framed ten shops, of which only one now partly survives in original form with pretty mezzanine metal windows.

The dining room~ first photos to be seen of this room
As you can see this was one of the most impressive rooms of any house in Ireland. The stunning rococo ceiling, large mirrors, paintings, fireplace, doorframes, there is no end to the beauty of this room sadly no longer here

A dash of Naples on Talbot Street. No. 2 straddles that intangible line between romantic decay and maintenance horror show. Either way, there is no excuse for such appalling neglect in the centre of the capital. This c.1840s Roman cement facade is crying out for conservation.

Welcome to the #HamptonCourtPalace brickworks! 🧱

Right now, work is underway here creating the new bricks needed to repair a damaged chimney stack, which has been carefully dismantled and brought down from the roof.

Let's have a look around 👇 (1/5)

Mairead McGuinness doing Ireland and the EU proud. As Nigel Farage tries to be as rude and as arrogant as possible.

“Please Sit Down,

Put your flags away. You’re leaving.

And take them with you!

(Parliament then erupts in applause)

Goodbye!” 🎤

I’d appreciate it if people could spread the word about this project. I’m overseeing the oral history element. My colleague Ida Milne will be doing most of the interviews. https://t.co/jKRfWssI2V
