    Heading off to final day of conference. Wireless permitting, I'll check in to see if there are cries of distress and ye want a helpful hint... :)

    I know, I know, miss, miss, miss pick me!

    No idea where it is, but judging by the scaffolding to the left and right of the chapel I would say a new church is being is being built behind and the church at the front was probably demolished

    I think we may be back in Castletownbere again
  • DannyM8 said:
    If you zoom into the last castletownbere photo you can see this church and also see my note there about the building of the new Church. You can also see some of the scaffolding poles to the left of the church in this photo

    It's probably a cruiser; it looks a bit small for a dreadnought anyway, and the all big gun nature of the armament would rule out a pre-dreadnought battleship.
  • beachcomber australia said:
    Well, sadly it's not HMS King Edward VII, whose sailors we encountered before here. But similar - spot the differences ...
  • derangedlemur said:
    Actually, maybe it is a pre-dreadnought. It looks quite like HMS Goliath. Or HMS Formidable. Edit: Or indeed quite a large number of late pre-dreadnought classes. e.g. upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/6/65/HMS_Montagu_%...

    Looks like it was moored somewhere around here

    Here's a record of HMS Ocean (a Canopus-Class battleship) in Castletownbere in 1905 www.plymouth.gov.uk/edwardianphotos/notice824.html

    Nope, definitely not Dingle. The church is wrong (I'm one of the priests based there) and the buildings don't look familiar. The church in Dingle (built 1864) has a distinctive tower.
