            The Cook street one is Beresford Street on the corner of Stirrup Lane ( to the right )

              On the extreme bottom left of the Beresford street photo you can see the whitewashed wall of Nangles court
              This photo shows Nangles court

                  I,ll chase up Patrick Street in the directories because those people looking out from the window over the shop at 3rd window from the left
                  They are in number 45.....I enhanced the photo and this number comes up on the shop front
                  See what comes up

                        Here is another photo of Patrick Street
                        I,ve matched it up to your one for comparison

                        The blue arrows show the direction that both photos would share and the blue strip at the far right of both photos would be where both would be pointing to ..just at the small statue

                        That small statue at first floor height over the shop might be in your one too
                        There is something there around the same location

                            You were bang on with the Patrick street location
                            ps
                            When I,m trying to indentify old photos I look for any shop names or numbers on them
                            Sometimes its hard with the old dark photos
                            So what I do is brighten the photo and then turn it into a negative ...this shows numbers and letters clearer and can even copperfasten if the lettet l is an L or an I by showing the dot over it
