    Looks like Glenmacnass between Laragh and Sally Gap. That being the old military road. R115 maps.app.goo.gl/MuF3vC4CjM2fRbAF7

    I am surr this was a river scene at 9/15 or was the image so calming that I am now floating above it all

    The Military Rd per Wiki en.wikipedia.org/wiki/R115_road_(Ireland) Includes some equally snowy scenes from ground level. At leat it starts from a more civilised location, i.e. the Yellow House pub in Rathfarnham.

    I don't know anything about the 1954 championships, but 2 years and 3 days ago I came across this monument at Shillingford in Oxfordshire commemorating the 1956 championships held on 11th and 12th October.

    I wonder if there is anything similar at the site of the 1954 championship?

    GoogleMaps Satellite 3D (thirsty!) - www.google.com/maps/@53.3543913,-6.2838047,990a,35y,18... Someone will know - does the "187.28h" in the google data tell us the height in metres? If so, we could probably work out Monkey's altitude from the perspectives etc.

    First thing that jumps out are the floating docks loading the barges to ferry kegs down to the docks for export, all gone now. It looks as if the little tramway to bring kegs to the landing slips were already replaced by lorries by this date.
  • George FitzPatrick said:
    Also of note is the number of horse an drays in one yard to right and in the other yard to upper left rows of what look like small vans. Is the graded mound with retention edges of wood baulks and barrels waste material brewers grains? see notes on photo.
