  This'd be one possibility. There's mountains in the distant background, but the depth of field is so different it's hard to say if they're the right ones. www.google.ie/maps/@52.1034094,-7.8664118,3a,52.9y,361.69... OSI: maps.osi.ie/publicviewer/#V2,609130,594623,10,7

According to one account, this remarkable woman, at the age of 140, undertook the then difficult journey to London to demand fiom James I. the restoration of her jointure. Another account makes her not quite so old, for it says she — Lived to the age of one hundred and ten, And died from a fall from a cherry-tree then.
