Now if this doesn't make you shed a tear or two They are the real Dublin people didn't have much but they had each other No other way of feeding the children Poor woman god bless everyone of you A credit to Dublin markets and how to try and survive when no one had anything Today's people please don't complain about your job and you need to watch this program
Was brought up in Moore st used to boil the kettle in mars pub 4 all the lady's tea,got change 2p coins in a flower basket 4 the bingo at the back off the pound shops ,
And to think Dublin Corporation want to put these people off Moore Street who have been the backbone of Dublin, where familys have worked hard in hail rain and snow to provide for there children, and Dublin Corporation wants to sell out to greedy Developers, and the dont want to pay the right amount of a remuneration package to the 17 stall holders left on Moore Street, shame on you Dublin Corporation and Fianna Fail and Fianna Gael government by not compensating the last of these great Dublin people. P.S Leo and Martin call yourselves prime ministers of the people you should be ashamed of yourselves now do the right thing and pay up.
I was friends with a wonderful trader from O'Moore st. Lyra was her name. I was working one day and she came into me, and said with a total serious face that she had aids. Well, my mind was totally flummoxed. She was in her 70s in the 90s which trust me when I say having a 70 year old woman telling me that she had aids leaves the mind just literally going wtf the I just hear? Then came Lyra's impish smile, knowing she just pulled a epic prank, with the words, Yes, I have aids. A bandaid, a hearing aid and a lucozade.
God be with the days my mother use to take me to Town on the bus to do her shopping, we get our weeks messages in Roches stores and on to more street, fruit & veg from the dealers, & meat from FX Buckley, its was the real Moore Street then the sound of the Athens of those hard working women a live show, I was so inspired by my experiences in the city I wrote a number of songs, close the city down which was one that made it on the CD Dublin don't fade away, I recall my mother taken me by the hand and walking me fast as we past the bus man's club just be side clearys were a bomb had gone off earlier that day the shopping still had to be done, as young as I was I could still feel the Tension in the Atmosphere, Then the corporation came and change moor Street and stole the Heart of the city, god be with the good old days,
My great aunt Julia was a dealer on Moore St. She always gave us a big bag of cherries when we went around there. As a kid , that was a great treat for us. Its not half the place it used to be sadly. When I go home to visit I'm always nostalgic when I see the changes. I have the memories thanks to you tube. Thanks for posting .
Thank you! I am not from your country. Does anyone know if this street and it’s market still survives? I’ve seen what happens when we destroy our own history in the name of “modernization” and “progress.” With that destruction is the equally unseen but just as real destruction of people’s souls. There must be some way to save what’s meaningful and deeply valued by those who know it best alongside the inevitability of Progress. I hope this city, this street, this market, these people can find it.
Yes the stalls on Moore st are still there selling produce, Probably only 10% of what used to be there when I was a child. There was about 5 butcher shops but I think only Bucleys butcher shop remains.
@@orosedobheathaabhaile yes Troy's butcher shop is still there but not in the original location opposite Buckleys. They moved further down past the ILAC near Parnell Street. I remember they used to have tripe and pig's trotters and big beef hearts in the window 😀
Sad state, maybe five Dublin stalls holder's left, it's mostly polish and African shops along the street. We've lost it, but it's worth rejuvenating Moore St. It is known the world over, it could be a flagship project for the city centre, it needs it badly.
There was a network of lanes to the west of Moore street with many street markets, dealers and shops as well as housing for many. They were cleared in the 1970's to make way for the ILAC modern shopping centre which opened in 1981.
My Grandmother was a dealer in Moore st..so was my Aunt after her..also my cousin..the Browns of Sampsons lane..long live Moore street..it just has to be saved..please God!

When was this film footage taken? it seems older than 2015. I see now it says at the end that it was first broadcast in 1974.
Never in my wildest dreams did I think Moore st would turn into a shit hole
Wish I could get a copy of the documentary without the awful background music...what were they thinking?
Definitely Starsky and " Hutch " 🇮🇪
Had to turn it down the neighbours would think i was watching 70s porn
She had me as a baby, me mother. Priceles.
My mother in laws mother had a stall on Moore st. Funnily enough her name was mollie Malone. But she never sold cockles or mussels 😂💚🇮🇪
5.03 I was expecting huggy bear to jump out and make an appearance 🤣
I saw Huggy Bear standing in a Halifax building society in Belfast about 10 yrs ago 😁.
Makes me wanna cry seeing dublin today and how the spirit of dublin has gone
how i miss that Dublin
& now they're well gone 😔
The soundtrack alone was worth it...but a great piece of film narrative end to end..
