  It's on "L[ake] Shindillagh" according to this - www.postcardsireland.com/postcard/through-green-hills-eri...

  via Irish Cottage Prints Irish Cottage Prints on Flickr "Mick McQuaid was a notorious poitín distiller of the last century. This cabin is typical of the poitín makers’ home. The cabin has no windows – this may be because it was originally built when there was a tax levied according to the number of windows in a house."

  Aka Mick McQuaid’s Castle, L. Shindillagh "The caption refers to a contemporary cartoon character - Mick McQuaid - whose exploits featured in a popular periodical called the Shamrock, from the 1860s to the early twentieth century." www.omnia.ie/index.php?navigation_function=2&navigati...

  "In the 1880's a popular magazine named 'The Shamrock' featured a serial written by a Colonel Lynam about imaginary conversations between an optimist, Mick McQuaid, and a pessimist, Terry Garrity. During these philosophical conversations, Mick often drew inspiration from a pipeful of Carroll's tobacco. Consequently, in 1889, the company launched one of its most successful tobaccos, Mick McQuaid." pipesmagazine.com/forums/topic/pj-carroll-dundalk-ireland...
