    In the window I see David Brett's Nursery Painting Book. I see some books illustrated by a David Brett around 1906-1911, but I can't find that particular book yet.

    Imperial Rover sign: Per wikipedia: Rover was established in 1878 by John Kemp Starley in Coventry to produce bicycles. The company developed and produced the Rover Imperial motorcycle in November 1902.

    a quick Google flags up a series of NLI held docs from the 1880s where he seems to have acted as a Government solicitor ?

    If the same man he was a resident magistrate.. RM..who took part in the Vandeleur evictions in 1888. Not well liked in Moyasta and beyond.

    If that's our legal chap, it seems like that more than his waistcoat was stuffed (allegedly)

    “Roche's appointment to the position
    of Resident Magistrate over other, more senior
    Removable Magistrates was questioned, as was
    his ability to impartially enforce the Crimes Act,
    given his association with the Loyal and Patriotic
    Union, a fervently anti-Home Rule organization. '3
    Roche's reputation for harsh sentencing and for
    self-importance was likewise a cause for complaint
    in the House of Commons." In this photograph he
    wears a check-pattern yellow-hued suit, which he
    wore frequently in the eviction photographs. He
    was often recorded as he is seen here, sitting on a
    low boundary wall, acting as "judge and jury', in the
    summary sentencing of those who resisted eviction.
    He was remembered later with his hat rakishly riding
    forward on the bridge of his nose as he sentenced the
    evicted tenants on the spot”
