From Eric...

The Clonmel Courthouse is quite similar to the one that stood in Ennis near
where the O'Connell Monument is at the top of O Connell street in Ennis
today. The windows on the upper floor differ but other aspects are very
close to the image in the fine painting of the Ennis .

From Clara..

I happened to be in the shop beside the square in
Ennis yesterday and as had seen Eric's photos before I went out I was trying
to visualize where the building stood. It is now more square shaped and on
picture the space in front was more angular.
