Omagh High Street and Court House, pre 1901

This is a truly delightful image, a capture of days gone by, showing so many facets of daily life - the two men chatting, the horse and carts, the sheep being led through the street, shop fronts, and some rather grand looking buildings.

Made all he more significant by that fact that this is the very street bombed by the Real IRA in August 1998.

Originally unidentified, this has been located thanks to Simon (13180) .
