The NIAH says Detached three-bay two-storey country house, built c.1810, facing north, having bowed entrance bay, two-bay side elevations, slightly recessed single-bay single-storey addition to east end, and multiple-bay two- and three-storey additions to rear elevation, built onto front of four-storey tower house of c.1585, and makes a passing reference to the "Seymour mausoleum" nearby.
Niall McAuley said:
On the record for the Mausoleum, it says The family mausoleum of the Seymours, who acquired Ballymore Castle and its lands around 1700 and remained there until the early twentieth century, so the Seymours probably owned the castle at the time of this pic.

There seems to be several Ballymore Castles. I don't think this is today's Galway one -

That's not a hole - some writing has been scraped off the image.

Streetview - goo.gl/maps/5KXcLUmktdk Almost the same except for the AIB Bank replacing the building at left. Now when did that happen ... ?
beachcomber australia said:
The NIAH says "c. 1925" for the bank, which does not really help - www.buildingsofireland.ie/niah/search.jsp?type=record&...

Could be towards the latter end of your time period - the gas lamp column outside the bank has been decommissioned and is minus its lantern whilst on the adjacent post there's an early electric street lamp.

Talking of Banks, the AIB on the right side is not yet there. When did it arrive ?
