The Seamens Mission and Sailors' Reading Room at 13 Eden Quay was opened on Friday July 20th 1888, at 3:00 pm. In September the Dublin Daily Express reported:
The Missions to Seamen Institute, 13 Eden quay, which was opened three weeks ago, is much prized by seafaring men. On Thursday last 72 visited the Sailors’ Reading Room, 12 letters were written there, 4 letters received there for seamen, 28 present at the temperance meeting in the evening, and 4 pledges taken, two of which temperance pledges were taken by shipwrecked sailors belonging to the crew of the wreck Mazeppa, and who have worked their passage to this port in the barque Miseltoe.
(Dublin Daily Express - Saturday 15 September 1888)

The Helmet Plate was used from 1902 to 1922. No laurels were used in Victoria's time.

It looks like a ski resort, aside from the donkeys and no snow.
Swordscookie said:
Probably somewhere in Donegal given Dr. Clarkes history. An especially interesting photograph with the chains linking the donkeys which I have never seen before though it does make sense. The one poor old ass would find those heavy rocks a great burden going uphill. Some fine beards on display for Movember and some very well shod boys given the era of the image. Would that indicate that it was winter even though the workman is in shirt sleeves? Where is Annie McGinley when you need her?
O Mac said:
Odd building. No boxed soffits and low pitch roof. Strange layout too. Church, school, convent?? Three grown men and two asses bringing a rock for a walk.
George FitzPatrick said:
O Mac Non boxed soffits quite common on buildings of that Victorian/Edwardian era. Also uses less wood so cost saving. It does look ecclesiastical.

If it's in Donegal, it's not heritage. NIAH doesn't seem to have it under any obvious category. Unless the date is post-1920, I suppose.

Wow what a great old photo! A variety of styles, the gentleman leaning on his umbrella reminds me of the Duke of Edinburgh present day! :O)

Barnardo (the furrier, and yes, original of Barnardos charity) is visible as J M B at #108, and they are still there.
