An ancient Abbey, abandoned and alone

    “The golden sun is sinking far
    Beyond Kilcummin shore,
    The pale faced moon of rosy June
    Doth rise to waken lore;
    The evening star illumines far
    Around old Nephin’s crown,
    And muffled roar of Rosses shore
    Doth swell these valleys round;
    This silent strand, these waters grand,
    So deep, so lone, so blue;
    This Abbey Moyne whereon I stand,
    This prospect of Moyview,
    The calm repose of evenings close
    That wraps this pool of Moyne,
    And wailing cry of seabirds high
    Deep silence all enjoin.”
    (Rev. James Greer)

    catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000320969 ROY (this photo)

    catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000326982 IMP
  • Niall McAuley said:
    beachcomber australia A low ROY, a medium CAB and a huge IMP catalogue number. I think a date is unlikely from catalogue neighbours!

    Happy new year, all.

    EDIT: Wait, it is not a low ROY number 607 as indicated in the link, it should be 6072 - hope for a nearby dated shot after all.

    There is another photo - L_ROY_06075 - which shows a newish grave stone with "1898" (or possibly 1888) see - catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000320972

    Weird how the window left of the door has chicken wire with creeper growing all over it. And The Lawn's lawn needs weeding; or are they imminent daffodils?
  • Fred Dean Snr. said:
    A few of the windows have been replaced, as fresh putty is visible.

    Is this the residence of the former (or is he ?) lord lucan?

An hotel, omnibus, loiterers and ... a chicken!

    Here is IM 181 also in Westport, at the railway station:
    Bowling along in their motor

    In the archive, a rear view of todays bus, IM 180, at Leenane. On the back is painted Tourist Car Clifden Westport, so I imagine they are going to Clifden via Leenane.
  • Foxglove said:
    to a modern eye the piles of horse manure are more numerous than expected. So neatly gathered for collection, the chicken seems to be getting a god feed of grubs/flies.

    Both IM 180 and IM 181, along with IM 179 are in the 1915 Irish Motor Book as being Char-a-bancs owned by Midland G.W. Railway, Broadstone.
