The note on the back of the photo helpfully says that the cross was unveiled on Easter Sunday, without mentioning a year...

catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000594324 in the archive is another Poole, titled "Committee of Kilrossanty memorial cross at Lemybrien" dated ca. 30 April 1930.

catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000594325 is another Poole of the cross, ca 30 April 1930, looks ike the same occasion as today's shot. Yes, definitely the same crew in catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000594326

Streetview doesn't seem to be a great match now, but the 25" looks a lot more plausible.

Here's a Streetview from St Clare's Road at the centre - one can rotate to look down the twin roads of Pearse Road (with the grassed rectangles in the middle) and then rotate again to see the curving line of houses on Staunton Avenue: www.google.com/maps/@52.8399914,-6.9416993,3a,75y,104.56h...

Modified herring bone pattern in field is for land drainage. What I can't see are the terracotta clay pipes. Maybe they have been laid and are awaiting to be back filled. The heaps along the headland look to be stone to be laid over the pipes.

That's Graiguecullen GAA pitch bottom right - drainage works underway... And Carlow Castle is visible across the river in the background

New Ross Standard - Thursday 20 May 1993 carried a notice for an auction of railway sleepers and rails from the former Quigley Magnesite Plant at Ballynacourty. So it had gone by May 1993.

It was near Ballinacourty Lighthouse according to the site above. It would have been unbelievably fugly in what is a beautiful place.

Wikipedia article on Magnesite.

Used , and in the production of Magnesium Oxide, a heat resistant material.

Also used in floor screeds, and as a catalyst.

I'm not a big fan of using seaside land as golf courses, but there's no doubt it looks better now!
