Am wondering where Sun Street was. Coghlans, Camerons and Nicholls are my ancestors. Any relatives out there?

Sun Street ran from 10/11 Edward Street to Carlton Hill. The Edward Street end had The Poor Dog Tray on one corner and The Rising Sun on the other.

Alan, wasn’t the pub called The Dog Tray? I remember well the poem from which the name was probably taken: On the green banks of Shannon, when Sheila was nigh………………………. and wherever I went was my poor dog Tray.

That’s a really great insight, Joe. Thank you. I remember The Dog Tray and often wondered about its name.

If you put ‘Dog Tray’ up in the search box (top right this page) there is a lot of info on it. There was much debate about the pub and its name many years ago on this site.
