    Title should be called "Digg - 1940's Style"

    Based on the news displayed in the window, this photo was taken on Christmas Eve, December 24, 1940. One of the earthquake news summaries says, "8:45 this morning. More pronounced than the one last Friday morning"; there were 2 earthquakes of note in New England in December 1940, one on the 20th and one on the 24th. 12/20/1940 was a Friday, and with the bit of Santa news also posted, it's definitely the 24th for this photo.

    William Joseph Hill, one of the best known pop songwriters of that time lost his battle with alcohol abuse and died of heart failure. On Sept 24th, 1940, he performed at the Golden Gate Exposition in San Francisco. Also performing at that show; Irving Berlin, Hoagy Carmichael, and Johnny Mercer. Three months later, on Christmas Eve, he died of heart failure in a Boston hotel room. He was only 42.

    O Mac Good morning.

    It would appear to be a place east of Fenit in Kerry called Churchhill. Nothing to do with Winston. The cross still exists in the village. maps.app.goo.gl/kUvXD1ourFBXh97J9

    Mike Grimes Thanks Mike, It has come down in its stature since 1943!

    It's now baseless.

    I haven't found anything about it online - nothing at the NIAH or DIA, I don't even see a close-up photo where the inscription can be read.
