"THE COURTHOUSE.
Todays Court House and Heritage Centre now stands where an original building was built in 1735 as a barracks to accommodate a half company of soldiers but was also used also as a Court House from these early days. In the early part of the 19th century a Revenue Office was opened here and then during the famine an overflow of 120 people from the Work House were housed in the upper third story of the building.
During the same era General Sessions of the Peace were held in June and December and Petty Sessions the first Monday in every fortnight. A special court was also held every three weeks for the recovery of debts not exceeding ten pounds.
The building was burned down during 1920 and rebuilt and opened again in 1927. ..."

Patrick Comerford is interesting about the three-arched Market House (and cottages out of sight behind).

I see two dogs, but the white animal in the right foreground is a chicken, pecking.

We have come across that bridge previously -

WOW! Look at the view with this googleball (April 2021) - goo.gl/maps/VjnyFhBqboTP2azK9 Mr French would have blown his mind if he had seen that !

Did Mr French / Lawrence have his trusty tripod set up on top of the Great Southern Hotel? Many photos in the catalogue - catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000322722 catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000334235 catalogue.nli.ie/Search/Results?lookfor=southern+kenmare+... Now the Park Hotel - goo.gl/maps/W1K2abd6PGPBXzfZ9 Ed. Sorry, bad link. Swing around 180 with the googleball above.

I think the house at the centre is Riversdale, c.1880

The Great Southern Hotel at Kenmare was built in 1894 according to - www.archiseek.com/2019/southern-hotel-kenmare-co-kerry/#:....
