Sharon Corbet Did you just break the OSI?

Not a huge amount of detail on what the club was - www.buildingsofireland.ie/niah/search.jsp?type=record&...
Sharon Corbet said:
derangedlemur I hadn't got that far yet :-) I'm still trying to figure out what Club the Clubhouse was for.

Built 1830-1840. It's already looking fairly down at heel in this picture.

I suppose this meant he had to know how to play pool. Was sheriff an elected position, and did it involve directing law enforcement?
Tyne & Wear Archives & Museums said:
A.Davey sheriffs are elected by their fellow councillors and nowadays the office is essentially ceremonial. In medieval times, though, it was a different story.

This is a serious question; Does anyone know where those hats can be bought? The type in the pic were a far superior design by being wider and thicker.
Tom Donald said:
yes those are excellent hats, keeping rain off the neck and ears thanks to that extraordinary diameter. You can get a pretty broad harris tweed cap. In Oban.
