    I think this looks east across the inner part of the estuary at Rosscarbery, with the cottages at East Rock bottom left and Burgatia Hill opposite

    I had the pleasure of going to secondary school in Rosscarbery. Once a month we got to go canoeing on the lagoon. I used to love going for walks to The Warren or down the other side to the pier. The photo must have been taken from up in Ardagh West up by the Ardagh Boys N.S.

    L_CAB_07936 nearby shows the Mercy convent at Rosscarbery, which the DIA puts at 1898

    Marked on the 25" map as "Summerhill House", that building across the water mid left has a closer view - catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000332619
  • Niall McAuley said:
    L_CAB_07941 in the other direction is Kilcullen, less likely to be close in date, but a newspaper poster mentions the Land Act. If after 1898, likely 1903 or 1906.

Cattle eating bottle tree 1946

    What looks like a bottle, stores up liquid and has an edible inner bark? The Queensland bottle tree. Shaped like a sturdy wine bottle, these trees are often left standing when undergrowth is cleared away for farming. While not a perfect source, Bottle trees have long been considered an emergency source of sustenance. Bottle trees are often left in fields where cattle are being grown. The leaves can serve as an emergency fodder. In times of extreme drought, farmers have even felled whole trees for cattle. When the outer bark is peeled back, it exposes a soft, edible inner bark. Unfortunately, the pulp is a good source of energy but doesn’t provide much in the way of protein. Some cattle fed on it have developed Nitrate poisoning. The native people who lived in Australia before the Europeans sometimes ate the roots of the young plants or scored the sides of the trees and ate the secretions from them. They used the fiber to make nets. Source: www.designertrees.com.au/queensland-bottle-tree-drink-foo...
