This brief newsreel clip of Dublin 1916 hints at the devastation caused by the 1916 Rising.

The camera slowly pans from Eden Quay, looking down O’Connell Street to Bachelors walk. The bombing of buildings is still evident as smoke can be seen billowing out broken windows and rubble, as people walk among the smouldering debris.
