  Hi, Is that a turntable?

• National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:

  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?

  The circle is still visible on Google maps. Here is the historic OSI link.

• Niall McAuley said:

  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.

  I find interesting the term "policewoman" which sounds North American to my ears, rather than WPC.

• East Riding Archives said:

  jamica1 Thanks for commenting jamica1, interesting point. We've altered the title to include "WPC", which we think makes it look better, so thanks for flagging this up.

  Another lovely old picture and the chap striding towards the camera does add to the interest of the shot. The street looks very clean, no litter.

• Niall McAuley said:

  It doesn't look much like this photo

• Niall McAuley said:

  If it's Belfast, the electric trams mean it's 1906 or later.

• National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:

  Niall McAuley That's why I'm confused, Niall. And hastily amending date, but I'm happy enough that it's Belfast...

• ccferrie said:

  It's similar in style to the Great Northern Railway Station but I don't think it's the same building.
