    Curious. The OSI says it's double track all the way, but it looks from this picture like only the near line is used.

    "Shortly after the Midland Great Western Company took over the Clonsilla-Navan line a new station was built a Fairyhouse to cater for race day traffic. The last special train to the Easter Meeting ran in 1940." www.irishidentity.com/extras/wayoflife/stories/railways.htm

    There is a reverse view but the "GENTLEMEN" sign doesn't seem to match - catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000303277 . "FAIRY HOUSE" sign is two words ... And Mr O'Dea went back 24 years later (in 1964) with his trusty Austin Cambridge - catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000307029

    Mr French / Lawrence has been tweaking away a great deal of vegetation, still seen in L_ROY_05280 - catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000322253 A couple of centimetres higher in 2013 via Jones-McAuley

    "This is the earliest of the high crosses in Kells, it was erected in the 9th century. An inscription in latin, at the top of the base, on the east face reads; PATRICII ET COLUMBAE CRUX -The Cross of Patrick and Columbia. Also known as the south cross it stands about 3.30 metres high." More details about the carvings here - www.megalithicireland.com/High Cross Kells.htm "The west side of the base depicts a chariot procession." Ed. Flickr does not like that link. Try google "cross kells history"

    The vegetation could do with a trim too!

    The Trim Limerick

    There once was a castle in Trim
    Where happened some stories so grim
    If those walls could speak
    They surely would shriek
    About dastardly deeds distant and dim.
