Ah it's full of interest :) The only remnant of the Bantry Bay Steamship Co., formed in 1883 and from 1900 onwards partly owned by the Cork Bandon & South Coast Railway, hence the CBSCR making an appearance. A ship usually left Bantry at 1pm (Tues, Thurs and Sat) operating to Castletownbere, returning Mon, Wed, Fri mornings. Summer services to Glengarrif and Adrigole were also popular (think this was the 'Prince of Wales' route for tourists). Passenger services ceased 1936, goods in 1946. The corresponding pier at Bantry, built to allow trains to run up to the steamship was then dismantled. I'm almost sure the building photographed is still in-situ despite seeing many years of disuse.
