as it is 50/60s the ploughing could still be living and working. you might get a living "hit" for today. The size of the land worked over also suggests that this was not "staged"

Looks like same mother and son in the various shots. Could that be a rear view, far right, of their little house in the other shot? The poor boy looks exhausted, no father or brother to help.

Perhaps somewhere near the camera is Mr Tilbrook's Ford Consul YBJ 427. The date on the other photo is "ca. 1960" - did they make several trips to the Ring of Kerry ?

Lovely photo that reminds us of our youth. Only a powerful man (or woman) could manage work like this. A tough generation.
