    Leonard Bentley Hello Leonard. I don't think so. It looks to me like a beautifully paved, but fixed structure. There is a sort of "gutter" all the way around, so presumably it was a washing area?

    There are 87 people listed in the Demesne in the 1901 census, including: Jarvis David 26 M England Coachman Bruen Michael 20 M Co Roscommon Stable Boy Domestic Servant Bruen John 19 M Co Roscommon Stable Boy Domestic Servant I think it is likely that those three are here somewhere. There are also many gardeners, gamekeepers, a Steward, a Butler and an RIC constable.

    Very like the Russian word "Кучер".
  • Rapsak said:
    The Dutch word as well as the Russian word for a coach with horses have been derived from the name of the Hungarian town Kocs.
  • Copper Kettle said:
    Very interesting, Rapsak, didn't know this! Wikipedia says so also.. and I thought the word was from some ancient word for "horse-cart" or whatever.. so its a quite curious fact. (0:
