  James Carter & Co. "Carter's Tested Seed" go way back to the early 19th century - parksandgardensuk.wordpress.com/2016/09/24/james-carter-c...

• Peter Denton said:

  Herbert Park looks likely. Undoubtedly not London, which looked entirely different.

• Niall McAuley said:

  In which case, the date is 1907.

• Dún Laoghaire Micheál said:

  Congratulation for your beautiful Album.

• Niall McAuley said:

  You'd have to think prison or, as they were known back then, lunatic asylum with all the bars on the upper floor windows.

• Niall McAuley said:

  I am leaning towards a hospital. STP_0436 next door is a reverse view.

• Niall McAuley said:

  Drawing a blank at the NIAH so far, possibly gone or North of the border...

  One country over from Austria? Maybe from the Dillon family trip to Switzerland in 1901?

  Rory Sherlock Pity it was a dull day - doesn't help with the clock time.
  
  "The hourglass, sometimes with the addition of metaphorical wings, is often depicted as a symbol that human existence is fleeting, and that the "sands of time" will run out for every human life.[18] It was used thus on pirate flags, to strike fear into the hearts of the pirates' victims. In England, hourglasses were sometimes placed in coffins,[19] and they have graced gravestones for centuries." - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hourglass#Symbolic_uses

  It's Bauen, in Switzerland. Streetview won't go there.
  
  Edit: Oh, wait. It will: www.google.ie/maps/place/Bauen,+Switzerland/@46.936118,8....
