and room for six people ! The Russians first developed "rollercoasters", built into snow/icy hills the two in the carriage have a posture indicating apprehension :-)

There is another Eblana double photo of the beach at low tide, with a very convenient "1892" written in stone pebbles - catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000561032 . Might help with the background buildings ... *Thank heavens for beachcombers!*

beachcomber australia Thank heavens again.

These riders are heading towards the camara. This is a Rack & Pinion Rollercoaster, and they are heading to the highest point, where they will switch lanes and gravity will do the rest, and they will be facing in the right direction.

That's the big house from Tollymore, I think. It's long gone - there's just the outbuildings and follies left.

If you have a minute, will you help with the dating of this photo on the Royal Australian Historical Society Flickr stream. beachcomber australia is a friend of theirs.
beachcomber australia said:
It's strange that there is not much online about this house, even in the history of Tollymore - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tollymore_Forest_Park#History But here is a possible earliest date sighting - there is a 'similar item' of the "Barbican Gate" showing a jaunting car with a nameplate with "1898" or maybe "1893" carved into it. A possible maybe? See megazoom at catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000336569

The Glenmore Hotel, to be sure, to be sure!

A glimpse of Glenmore glamping ...
Perhaps they invented it ?!

Mike Grimes Mike, did they take over from the hotel or was there another life in-between?

On 3rd September 1907 and the four following days, the "complete, elegant and costly appointments of the Glenmore Hotel, Rostrevor" were put up for auction (Newry Reporter - Tuesday 27 August 1907). The owner selling was Mrs O'Leary, and the new owner was a Mr Collen or Collins (the Newry Reporter couldn't make up its mind)

I wonder if the photo was commissioned as part of the sales literature provided to potential buyers?
[On reflection, probably not, as the auctioneers R. M. Gray were a Belfast company. Would they commission a Dublin photographer?]

Edit: But ... the catalogue for the sale had "a capital view of the picturesque mansion on the cover". There were 1200 lots.

John Spooner I'd say this was just a normal workaday shot for Robert French, roaming photographer. Though people often bought Lawrence prints for their own use/enjoyment...
