Great pic there JBo...obviously one of the newspapers of the day. I've tried enhance the pic here and reckon it might be Grafton Street.

A remarkable life for a kid from the slums and London Workhouse.
A penchant for younger women....Married an 18 year old when he 54. married a 16 yr old when he 29. Said to be cruel to his women.....and accused of sexual deviance. Once asked by actress Peggy Hopkins Joyce at first meeting "is it true what all the girls say, that you’re hung like a horse?". Claimed to have had sex with 2000 women. Had eight children with Oona O'Neil....Holiday'd regularly at Waterville, Kerry, where they have statue in his honour. . "The Circus" (1928) gave him his first of four Academy Awards. Died on Christmas Day 1977. What a life eh !!!

Jarvis Street Hospital

I remember Jervis Street Hospital, my grandmother was in there when she broke her hip. I was very young at the time, so while I remember the hospital I can't remember that church beside it. Was it attached to the hospital or a separate entity
