Is that a Ganlow or a Gondola I see before me?
Summary
Those of you who are not "in the know" are wondering at that heading but the boat under the arch of the bridge is known as a "Ganlow" and allegedly they were based on the Gondola! The Shannon must have been at full tide to have the water so calm at that point of the river!..Photographers: Unknown..Collection: Eblana Photograph Collection ( http://catalogue.nli.ie/Collection/vtls000340626/CollectionList?lookfor=&type=AllFields&page=3&view=list ) ..Date: Catalogue range c.1870-1890..NLI Ref: EB_1237 ( vtls000560707 ) ..You can also view this image, and many thousands of others, on the NLI’s catalogue at catalogue.nli.ie ( http://catalogue.nli.ie )
