    This must be one of your earliest photos.

    Is it Carrickbrennan? It looks a bit rural to be one of the churchyards in Dun Laoghaire.

    DannyM8 Pretty early alright if it is early 1860s for a photo on our Commons stream. This is one of our earliest on here for which we have an exact date - 10th November 1863, but the very lovely Miss Coddington dates from circa 1852...

    I wonder where it was? I don't see it on the OS historical maps. From Wikipedia article on Dean's Grange (founded 1861): The Burial Act of 1855 resulted in the closure of many of the older churchyards in Dublin and surrounds due to overcrowding. This drove the need to find new lands for cemeteries.

The Kish in Dun Laoghaire?

    Does "CHRISTIANI" have something to do with anything?
  • beachcomber australia said:
    Aha! Christiani & Neilsen Ltd. designed the new lighthouse. See - coastmonkey.ie/kish-lighship/ - including... In 1960 the Commissioners of Irish Lights decided to build a new permanent lighthouse to be installed on the Kish bank. The lighthouse was designed by Messrs Christiani & Nielsen Ltd and it was based on models previously used in Sweden. It would stand 110ft tall and weigh 6,500 tonnes, it contained six bedrooms and had TV and radio facilities with a helicopter pad on the very top. Construction began in 1963 and by June 1965 it was ready to travel out to its new home.

When you're in a hurry to catch a train, you'll park anywhere?

    There's a mention in the catalogue notes that it could be the Palme, but I don't think that's right. The Palme was the focus of the 1895 Kingstown Lifeboat Disaster, and according to newspaper reports the masts were cut off when it went aground.
