Mary Street 1950's

Viewed from West Street

A viewer in Canada e-mailed the following:-

"Morrison's Court was about opposite Mary St. Sunday School and further down facing John Mc Cusker's rag yard was Sinnamon's Court. The wee shop in Mary's St. was run by Maggie Hagan and her sister Teresa when we knew it. We used to get penny drinks, she poured pop from a big bottle into a little shot glass. Everyone drank from the same glass."
