    Seems to be referred to as 'Lady Kenmare's Cottage' in the mid-1800s Ordnance Survey first edition 6" map, but 'Glena Cottage' is also there nearby. Then the name 'Lady Kenmare's Cottage' disappears in the Cassini version of the map, 'Glena Cottage' is switched from one building to the other, and the building formerly referred to as 'Glena Cottage' is then referred to as 'Visitor's Cottage'

    From above link - "In anticipation of the Royal visit, the cottage had been redecorated with white chintz wall paper with a floral pattern." See megazoom !! - catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000563979

    Also from the blog is this sad story from 1889, which is probably too late for this particular photo (?) - "Tragedy struck the inhabitants of the cottage in 1889, when a Dr. Finerty rented the cottage from Lord Kenmare. Dr Finerty and his wife, who were married a year previous, had their first child born at Glena. They had a christening party and invited a large number of people to celebrate at the cottage by the lake. A number of young men who attended the party over indulged and left the party by row boat which overturned. Among the five young men drowned, were brothers Joseph and Daniel Riordan who worked in the post office in Killarney."

    There are some friends of mine from the USA on "Retreat" in Ireland this week, sampling some Irish hospitality and visiting some of our classic designers. I know they look in here from time to time. Welcome and have a great visit.

    The Heritage Ireland page mentions that: "The wallpaper in the Salon manufactured by the Dufour factory is one of the first commercially produced Parisian wallpapers."

    O Mac Owen, the streetview is almost the same.
