  You'd never get me to kiss it.... great shot!

• Sharon Corbet said:

  I presume the lack of any railings means that it is even older than this one.

  'Now' 2009 ...

  A vivid description of a visit to the Blarney Stone in 1887, possibly near the date of this photo - Freeman's Journal (Sydney), 24/12/1887, p.7s - trove.nla.gov.au/ndp/del/article/115445952 " ... no protection inside ... " - ie no railings in 1887.

• Sharon Corbet said:

  beachcomber australia There's a picture here claiming to be from the 1880's without the railing too.

We're going on a bear hunt!

  Can't place it. I'm sure I know it, though.

• Rory Sherlock said:

  I think that's one of the caves under Blarney Castle - here's a modern image from Flickr (jodee_gldcst) www.flickr.com/photos/20543307@N08/4846891823/in/photolis...

• derangedlemur said:

  Rory Sherlock Well Done! That's it. Did we have this one on here in living memory, btw? Your photo looks familiar.
