Hogan of an Irish Free State Army soldier standing on guard with his rifle on the breached wall of a large building; the building has sustained extensive damage to its outer stone wall and coping stones; a second soldier is standing at ease to the right of the building; a group of small boys has congregated and is looking on; one boy is smoking.

The three photographs have some differences in detail. The restaurant interior has been destroyed although its façade, including decorative ironwork, appears to be largely intact; the soldiers are helping to salvage furniture. Further down the street there is even greater devastation of buildings with debris and wrecked vehicles lying around.
