Really fishy is right. Some really bad scraping and scratching. You're probably right about it being the Blackwater. There's another Poole where Lismore Castle is in the background. The nearest Google go is the nearby N72 where I think we see the same sloping hill in the distance. Streetview Somewhere here maps.osi.ie/publicviewer/#V2,605227,598959,11,9

I think the gent with the rod and beard is Spencer Compton Cavendish, the 8th Duke, so 1901-1908. Early use of photoshop to add a fish that was "this big".

I like that description of the gate's romantic origins (from the DiscoverIreland link above) -
Dromana Gate is a Hindu Gothic gate dating from around 1830, 5km south of Cappoquin in County Waterford. The only one of its kind in Ireland. The gate was originally built from wood and papier-mâché to greet the owner of the Dromana Estate, Henry Villiers-Stuart and his wife, Theresia Pauline Ott of Vienna, on returning from their honeymoon in 1826. The couple were so enchanted with the gate it was reconstructed in stone in later years.
Ed. The archiseek version is better ! -

So who is Mr Muttonchops? And how does the bridge open - lift, swing, or slide ? Mr French / Lawrence must have liked the gate and bridge - catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000339464 - same as this catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000323754 - different season catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000334573 - as above catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000334574 - Charlie Chaplin ! catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000323755 - no Charlie ! And Mr Poole visited also - catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000035728
