    Built in the mid-1890s for the Girls Friendly Society of Ireland, it was originally known as the "House of Rest" and served as a home of rest for "sick and weary members".
    The society received Royal permission to name it the Queen Victoria Home in 1901.

    ACCIDENT AT KING JOHN'S CASTLE CARLINGFORD.—On Monday evening a venturesome young sailor, from a vessel at present lying in Carlingford Harbour, was clambering through the picturesque ruins of King John's Castle when he missed his footing. and fell from a height of twenty feet. Fortunately, he escaped with his life, but his right arm was fractured, and he sustained other injuries.

    “Carlingford Castle's west wing was built in the late 12th century by Hugh de Lacy, Lord of Meath shortly after the Norman invasion of Ireland. It acquired the name "King John's Castle" after King John, Lord of Ireland, supposedly stayed there for three days in 1210, during his second expedition, when he invaded Ulster to apprehend Hugh de Lacy, 1st Earl of Ulster” en.wikipedia.org/wiki/King_John%27s_Castle_(Carlingford)

    John Spooner There is a "venturesome young sailor" on the bowsprit. Looks like he is up to mischief.
