    Hmmm ... Mr French / Lawrence made at least three Imperial plates from the same spot with the people, dog, and bathing machines rearranged. What was going on - a beachcomber's day out?! catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000329451 (this photo) catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000329452 catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000329453

    The Holy Cross church spire, on right, completed 1871. But that seems too early for our photo which looks c. 1900

    They are so nicely dressed. Had money and leisure time all in the same location. I have a gut feeling this scene was staged. Why else would everyone be looking in the same direction? The first moving pictures were created in 1888.

    Scanning back in the catalogue, in L_IMP_1210 I see the steamer Ballycotton, wrecked in 1900. In today's image, I see Cliff House, 1890.

    The opening was nearly 4 months earlier. Waterford Standard - Saturday 01 November 1930
    MR. W. C. MERCER TO OPEN THE GROUNDS. The new Association Football grounds at Kilcohan Park will be formally opened by Mr. W. C. Mercer, President of the Chamber of Commerce, on Sunday next, when the Waterford Club meet Bridewell in the Free State League. The covering of the three stands is now almost completed by Messrs. Graves and Co., Ltd. Two are almost ready, and the third will be ready shortly. To the big stand the admission will be 6d., and to the smaller and more exclusive stand 1s. will be charged. Entrance to the field will cost Is.; school children half-price. The smaller or third stand will contain two dressing rooms for the home and visiting teams. They will have hot and cold water laid on. A big enclosure is laid at the back of the stands as parking ground for motor cars.
    No doubt Messres Graves & Co commissioned the photo to show off their handiwork to prospective clients, probably keeping quiet that they hadn't quite met the deadline for completing the stands before the grounds were opened.
