Summary

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

You can compare this view of Lurgan with its <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/nlireland/7163415146">companion photo</a> (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 <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="http://www.nli.ie/blog/index.php/2012/04/13/then-then-and-now-photographic-projects/">NLI Blog</a>.

<a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/joefuz/">Joefuz</a> 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."
