    There's bits of both Oxford and Cambridge universities in similar styles, but I haven't found a match yet.
  • derangedlemur said:
    Jesus College Oxford, particularly, is quite like it.

    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.

She: I told you not to come this way! He: Yes dear!!!

    Looks similar to the stone crushing machine we encountered previously -
  • Niall McAuley said:
    Is that the Baron, Luke Dillon at left? If so, date is 1900+ish rather than 1860...
  • Foxglove said:
    makes my mind wander and think of a Kate Bush and Donald Sutherland shooting the "Cloud Busting" video ... showing my age...
  • Foxglove said:
    interestingly, there is a man at the front of the engine/carriage wearing a top hat, almost like a showman/ ringmaster ?
  • John D Durrant said:
    I have fond memories of traction engines towing threshing machines into the fields and working all dy non stop at grandmas in the late 1940s. Life was more fun then.
