    Great capture!

    "W.R. & S." is 1903+ ? (I can never remember). The tower has been renovated since, and Cromwell's damage repaired. I can't find when. Mr French has a reverse view with iron railings, presumably after Mr Ritchie. So both before 1914? - catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000324468
  • George FitzPatrick said:
    Lawrence/Robert French was here at a later date as in L_ROY 02128 the Tower has railings surrounding it. Also there is L_CAB 01478 of the Quays with 3 paddle steamers moored. One may be datable from its name if it is a companion plate to 2128. This may help to date the Lawrence photos and narrow the range for the Eason.

    TROVE IS SOMETIMES AMAZING! The railing happened on 15 August 1906 - 'Read All About It!' - trove.nla.gov.au/newspaper/article/166968894?searchTerm=%... So this Ritchie photo is before August 1906.

    Here's a Streetview from St Clare's Road at the centre - one can rotate to look down the twin roads of Pearse Road (with the grassed rectangles in the middle) and then rotate again to see the curving line of houses on Staunton Avenue: www.google.com/maps/@52.8399914,-6.9416993,3a,75y,104.56h...

    Modified herring bone pattern in field is for land drainage. What I can't see are the terracotta clay pipes. Maybe they have been laid and are awaiting to be back filled. The heaps along the headland look to be stone to be laid over the pipes.

    That's Graiguecullen GAA pitch bottom right - drainage works underway... And Carlow Castle is visible across the river in the background

    Looks like Glenmacnass between Laragh and Sally Gap. That being the old military road. R115 maps.app.goo.gl/MuF3vC4CjM2fRbAF7

    I am surr this was a river scene at 9/15 or was the image so calming that I am now floating above it all

    National Library of Ireland on The Commons I must have been dreaming, or April Fool's is a week late. Or Monkey business!

    The Military Rd per Wiki en.wikipedia.org/wiki/R115_road_(Ireland) Includes some equally snowy scenes from ground level. At leat it starts from a more civilised location, i.e. the Yellow House pub in Rathfarnham.
