    National Library of Ireland on The Commons There you are now. Connemara Loop maps.app.goo.gl/ayCHQ6QnXzuDkHXv8 I drove by there yesterday a bit better. Leenane Hotel maps.app.goo.gl/PufM65dkJEBph4xw6 The Leenane Hotel is just to the left.

    I recognize that telegraph / telephone pole! Reverse-ish view - catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000333180 But the pole is not in this earlier view -

    Is this the wall? Among the invitations to contractors to tender in the Galway Express - Saturday 5 March 1887
    To build 8 breeches breaches of retaining and protection wall on the road from Clifden to Westport, between the barony meeting meering and Leenaun Hotel. Not to exceed £l2.
  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
    John Spooner it sure could be! Good value, I am not sure you would get 8 suitable stones for £12 now. I wonder what "8 breeches" meant?

    Higher Level Paper

    Pillbox Caps (Hats?) as seen above and below.
    Is it Pillbox or Pill box? is either the correct name?
    Tell us everything about them.

    No-one named Jenkings in the 1901 census in Galway. Here is a possible Jenkins family

    Yes, looking at the OSI, Ballybaun is a townland at the Northern boundary of Clonbrock demesne.

    According to the Wonderful Wizard of Wikipedia,
    " ... In the 19th century pillboxes were worn by the units of the British Army and its overseas possessions as well as by the Boys Brigade. ..."
    See - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pillbox_hat#

    I vote for pillbox ...

    Niall McAuley Niall, I would say you are correct, they were certainly productive, a big family! I see in the building report that they own the house, I was surprised by that.
