What fine-looking horses, hard working men lovely handmade carts full of the best fruit and vegetables that you can get in any town, the sellers and buyers all with cherry voices, quick smiles and always Thank You
My dad, a grower, used to bring vegs up to Dublin market. He loved the Moore Street vendors. He'd come home with fruit and fish, special fish you couldn't buy locally. Or sometimes he'd come home with LPs of his favourite classical music, a suit for himself and a fur coat for mam. We used to look forward to him coming home from Dublin market with goodies.
Was 20 then and living in Dublin. Didn’t shop in Moore street much as out of the way of where I lived. And fruit? Students didn’t eat fruit. I spent all me money on whiskey and beer and books and cigarettes and the occasional groovy outfit and going to plays and gigs and pizzas and chips and toast. No idea how I was so skinny then tbh. We did buy coal during 82-84 when I lived in a shared house in the north side but it was a fuckin nightmare getting it home as none of us had a car. Briquettes on the bus.
Remember it well. Even in the early 90’s it was great.
A glimpse of life in 'Old Dublin', part of its former character. Now a neo-Continental metropolis, but that is so-called progress. Thanks for sharing this with us
So progressive to watch your culture disappear
@@dhalsim-1 The worst example was Wood Quay and the concrete bunkers on that site. Brown envelopes etc ....
Tell ye that's the Dublin I grew up in... long gone sadly .... n gladly in some ways ...
Dealer..."Apples 5 for 50
Customer..."il take 5 please, here wait theres only 4 here"
Dealer..." one was gone off so I threw it out for ye"
😂😂
I miss the characters on Moor St to.
Deya remember the "Five for two shillins d'appled an d'oranges"?
Ha ☺️🙌
The 'Professional Dubliner' accent so beloved of RTE producers. It was never enough for them to use an actor with a normal Dublin accent, they always had to get in some old ham to camp the whole thing up..AH ME JEWHEL AN DARDELIN VEHG-EHH-TEBB-ELLS
It sounds a bit like Gaye Byrne holding his nose and doing the accent
With a surname like yours I’d shut up and leave
@@pauljackbyrne9439 why
@dc2275 I was talking about RTE's love for The Professional Dubliner accent, over a wide range of programmes over the years, in drama, comedy, soap opera. Whether it's actors, presenters or guests on a show.
@Whatevrr I never said his accent was fake. I'm very familiar with what you're calling a normal inner-city accent, my Grandmother was from Thomas St, Grandfather from Bride St and going to Moore St since the mid 70s as a child. Good to hear you think I'm 'just too young' to remember though. I'm familiar with the inner city and the older peoples accents. I never said his accent was fake. And I don't mean camp in the gay sense, I mean it in the theatrical sense, exaggerating. It depends on whether you believe there's such a thing as a 'professional Dubliner' in broadcasting.
This was before large supermarkets and globalization took hold! You couldn't sell fruit and veg or coal like that today!
They were great days I used to shot up me gear and do a mugging! You couldn't do that today with the cctv everywhere watching ya
I remember horse and cart on the roads in Tipperary in the 70s and early 80s I was only kid. My grandfather lived outside Templemore Tipperary and had a small farm. He delivered churns of milk to the creamery and brought home trams of hay in it and took his family to Mass in it. He never drove a car. I fell off the fecking thing one time and tore the knees of myself and it moving. Times were a lot simpler then compared to now. Society has got rougher.
great video
My father drove a horse and cart for cie throes poor horses had a hard life
Caroline my dad worked for CIÉ to on the horse and cart they got a three wheeler lorry in 1970 or something I don't remember the horse I was born in 71. My da was paddy Nolan or mick both names suited him lol drank the horses share of porter only horse that worked sober In Dublin drink ruined him bad a spoiled child he was.
Mushirewims is in dem boksis.
I notice that from a mile my sisters worked in the mushroom factory delicious the special ones come out in September yehh haaa.
Great footage, but im not so sure about the date? 1983? Looks more like the late 70's? high waist baggie trousers, big collared shirts, trench coats and some of the hairstyles. Looks very 70's to me. Great to watch though..
I was born in 82 this looks alot older more like 70's
reminds me of the barras market in Glasgow. great time.
Good times. Good memories. Times of progress and optimism for the future. Today, unfortunately, we are unable to inspire our children for the future, because evil has a tight grip on the neck of humanity.
No way is that 1983 - mid to late 70's tops.
Whatever has happened to such an iconic street? Obviously things change ,but the heart of Dublin is gone
That was certainly the plan
I was 7 in 1983 my last name is Farmer it comes from the term tax collector that got rich on their own right, its an Irish/English surname.🙂☘️
Thanks for the memories!!
Anyone remember a guy that worked in the fruit market near fannings in 1983-84,he had a big head of curly black long hair,a black leather jacket and crucially,a black jumper with "heavy metal" knitted into it in white,its an odd one but l always thought he looked cool and would have loved a jumper like that. :)
wow i used to live in the flats at york st where he gave the guy the stone of coal
I think horses might be back on the streets the way things are going. That looks more like the late to mid 70's to me.
At halloween a you could buy a pack of bangers on Moore street with only 8 in the box instead of 10 all for a pound.De rare ould times Mr brennan.
Ahhh yeah the black cats were great😂😂
Look at the cars too - no early '80s models in sight. You're right, this is late-70s era.
These were the models in Ireland in the early 80s
In Dublin the forbidden fruit is fruit.
Just spotted S Cousins and Sons Butchers at No 6 I had been in there a couple of times in the 60's. Related distantly.
Yid be on Henry Street and someone would shout, 'Get the last of de wrappin paper" and you would look up and see loads of kids with wrapping paper.
home sweet only a baby then but after walk home from school through that market and coal man to my nanny right in front of me. ah there times no one can beat. a real child hood where money had nothing to do with it.
We didn't have money..lol. But you are right. We made our own fun. Remember I show you mine if you show me yours.. 🍀🇮🇪
I'd say it was great those days, not a foreigner in sight
Can remember coal deliveries coming by horse and cart in the seventies, did not know it was still going on in the eighties.
I knew all these wee women, they all got together in a pub called The Bolton Horse, they parked the buggies outside.
Dublin vs Galway 83 WOO!!
The rare auld time are gone😢.
3.40 did she ever find Owen.
Definity 70 look at trouser flares...
No sign of Bono or the Edge?! LOL
Thank God
I think this might be '73, not '83
Yes I think the TV series 'Hands' was first broadcast in 1983 but the footage used looks a lot earlier
It could actually be '83 but I'd guess it's more like about 1979 or '80 judging by the cars shown; that looks like an Opel Kadett C2 at 3:29 which only came out in 1976 and there's a Hillman Hunter in front of it that looks like the Chrysler version that came out around '77 also but both have a few years of wear and tear on them.
Our dublin now gone 😢🇮🇪
That’s Terry cole selling the coal I remember Terry fondly.
Whats the phase he's shouting to get the attention of the customers?
@@mctechie coal.

A lot of comments point out that this video must be from the 70s based on fashion, hairstyle and cars. That's not a clear indicator. Not saying the video is definitely from the 80s, but based on fashion alone we can't be sure, because what people forget, is that Ireland has been known to lag years behind in those areas due to heavy political conservatives being in charge, not wanting to "mingle" with the rest of Europe until the mid 80s. Ireland was very closed off in terms of economics and social progression, leading to many trends being adapted years later, such as fashion, hairstyle and technology (cars). My own parents (from Malahide), never even heard of Pizza or spaghetti until they visited mainland Europe in the 70s. That's how closed off the Irish society was. It was only in the mid 80s when there was a shift in political party from radical conservatives to centre-left, when Ireland opened up. Ireland went from the poorest and most conservative countries in western Europe in the 80s, to now one of the most progressive countries in Europe. Still, a lot needs fixing, but when considering how behind Ireland was in the 80s and then it all changed in the 90s... well done.
Completely agree with everything you said. Many things that people associate with late 70s were present in Ireland only in the 80s. I think this video is indeed from early 80s
I am almost sure its earlier than 1983. I left Ireland for New York in 1984. So that time period is very vivid in my mind. All the cars in this video are much older than 1983
Just to let you know, at 0:25 in this video, the hoarding to the right of the horse is where the Ilac shopping centre is now. The Ilac centre opened in 1980/81. Construction hasn't even started from what we can see in this video, so this is most definitely from the 1970's. I found your views very condescending, ill informed and almost insulting. My advise is for you to do more research before you comment...
Where's Yarko Jennings and Tooshay Maher..happy days..
LOL Me ma says he saying coal at 3:33 don't sound like it :):)
Jazus, be gorra and If I get hold of ya ded, we had gas in Mercer house in the 1960's, coal was a luxury.....
The Swan Bar on the corner of York St and Auinger St across from Whitefriar St Church. Normally have a drink in there when I'm back in Dublin. Country was depressing back in those days when it was the Irish who emigrated. And now we have people who complain about immigration into Ireland. How easy we forget-go figure.
I remember when Dublin people objected to people from the country coming to Dublin taking their jobs. Now they're giving out about the foreigners
@@uyoebyik @Frank Ryan I bet yous pair of suckers have had all your jab$ fully boooosterd... died suddenly and Replaced with economic migrants 🤣🤣 the irony
My da left his horse with CIÉ known he would die when he got the scammel 3 wheeler Lester was his name poor horse got a terrible retirement.
who's the guy talking over this.?
He's very good.
Hands?
3:33 ALAN ALAN ALAN
Alan was his boyfriend.
Looks more like 1973...
Christ the Dublin accent would go through ya,woeful.
datboy134 Rubbish. It looked awful then. People selling buckets of coal from horse drawn carriage. Economy was so bad then it was the Irish were the scourge as they emigrated.
Ah fuck off ye poxy moan
Quiet lad. I’m sure you’re accent pays absolutely no homage to the Irish 😂

Moore street is Irish no longer, why are we giving up our country and race so easily, shame on us .
What does whist mean ?

I remember when it was like this now its full of russians and persians foreigners everywhere WE WANT IRELAND BACK IRISH!!!!..
12uniflew this is what real Ireland was
Persians and Russians each make up less than 0.005% of the population what are you talking about?
Yeah .... Enough of this multi-cultural bollox that the EU has thrust upon us. F***ing useless politicians have sold this country down the toilet to Brussels for a few poxy motorways. Is this what men died in 1916 for? No f****ing way man!
@@jimmygummidge9865 lol thats quite an assumption. A wrong assumption because i'm Irish and my name is actually scottish not english.
But maybe my statistics are wrong too? Where are all these Russians and Persians? Theres a good number of Eastern Europeans and a few Middle Easterners here but not from those countries?
1 2 uniflu was the trojan horse for this new flood of Russians & Persians #GetThemOut
Poor oul Moore St the heart ov Ireland ruined with blacks now
It was the homosexual establishment who brought them in.
Bit by bit Ireland's culture is dying

Silly voice for old video mockery bring on someone not so dry
The narrator is Eamon McThomas he was the presenter of the program. Probably the greatest historian of Dublin city life. Wrote several great books on Dublin life, Coal blocks and gur cake and Me jewel and darling Dublin.
Not a foreigner in sight....when I'm president they are all gone....😁😁😁😁
