    Looks similar to the stone crushing machine we encountered previously -

    Is that the Baron, Luke Dillon at left? If so, date is 1900+ish rather than 1860...

    makes my mind wander and think of a Kate Bush and Donald Sutherland shooting the "Cloud Busting" video ... showing my age...
  • Foxglove said:
    interestingly, there is a man at the front of the engine/carriage wearing a top hat, almost like a showman/ ringmaster ?
  • John D Durrant said:
    I have fond memories of traction engines towing threshing machines into the fields and working all dy non stop at grandmas in the late 1940s. Life was more fun then.

A dry stone wall to hold back the tide?

    National Library of Ireland on The Commons There you are now. Connemara Loop maps.app.goo.gl/ayCHQ6QnXzuDkHXv8 I drove by there yesterday a bit better. Leenane Hotel maps.app.goo.gl/PufM65dkJEBph4xw6 The Leenane Hotel is just to the left.
  • O Mac said:
    We have seen the hotel numerous times. .along with the MGWR's new touring omnibuses.

    I recognize that telegraph / telephone pole! Reverse-ish view - catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000333180 But the pole is not in this earlier view -

    Is this the wall? Among the invitations to contractors to tender in the Galway Express - Saturday 5 March 1887
    To build 8 breeches breaches of retaining and protection wall on the road from Clifden to Westport, between the barony meeting meering and Leenaun Hotel. Not to exceed £l2.
  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
    John Spooner it sure could be! Good value, I am not sure you would get 8 suitable stones for £12 now. I wonder what "8 breeches" meant?

Downtown Ahascragh - or somewhere like it?

    I think this is Bad Schwalbach (im Taunus) and that's the Kurhaus on the right.
  • John Spooner said:
    The building looks very similar to the Staatsoper in Hannover (wings, balcony, facade) but the landscape doesn't fit.
  • Sharon Corbet said:
    Wikipedia has a reverse view. (Bad Schwalbach used to be called Bad Langenschwalbach.)
  • Niall McAuley said:
    The Dillons were in Germany in 1901, right?
  • Sharon Corbet said:
    Niall McAuley Yeah, June-July 1901. (They were in Bad Schwalbach on the 27th June - that's the Stahlbrunnen behind them.)
