  That's a bit of a blasted heath for a greenhouse. It looks like west Cork or Connemara!

• derangedlemur said:

  I can't be sure from this picture but it looks quite like Kylemore Abbey: www.buildingsofireland.ie/niah/search.jsp?type=record&... "extensive group of mainly ruinous glasshouses to north-east quadrant", it says.

• Niall McAuley said:

  Kylemore Abbey!

  They are very ornate glasshouses. A sort of arched roof on each!

  derangedlemur You are quick. I think you are right!

  Remarkable photo! Amazing how the ship dwarfs the buildings in the foreground.

• Peter D. Tillman said:

  Very cool photo. Does anyone know a bit about the ship? My feeble Google search didn't turn it up.

• Tyne & Wear Archives & Museums said:

  The Ottawa was one of a large number of ships to bear this name, but this particular one was a tanker built at Swan Hunter's Wallsend yard in 1964 for Trident Tankers Ltd.

• Peter D. Tillman said:

  Thanks. I'll go with "launched in 1964" per above. Added to en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Swan_Hunter Thanks for posting these!

• Jim H5 said:

  This was the first ship I worked on after being transferred on completing my apprenticeship at the Wallsend Slipway. It was 87,000 tonnes and I think it was propelled with a gas turbine engine. The photo was taken on land behind the Hebburn ferry landing on the bottom left of the picture. The Esso Northumbria was 256,000 tonnes
