Something Fishy

    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

    8th was Duke from 1891-1908. 9th from March 1908-1936 10th from 1938-1950. 11th from 1950-2004

    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".
  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
    Niall McAuley Are all fishermen liars or do all liars fish?
  • Niall McAuley said:
    His Dukeship was patron of "Lismore College" in 1901-1905, William Wright was headmaster.

The folks that live on the hill - in Renny, Co. Cork

    Our first non-clydebuilt steamer. This one seems to be from Liverpool (I'm waiting for the evidence to download).
  • derangedlemur said:
    "A new steamer built at Liverpool P.S. Sybil (233 tons) replaced P.S. Meteor and became the youngest packet vessel at the Milford station in 1827. She was also the fastest steamer on the crossing with a record of 8 hours 13 minutes for a sailing between Milford and Dunmore East. " Hmm. I'm not sure that ship looks 70 years old.
