    Still derelict I am afraid.

    Moira That's as close as Streetview will get to it - I think it may be further back off the road here maps.osi.ie/publicviewer/#V1,571986,843067,7,9 (PS That would make it in Sligo, not Leitrim)

    Inferred hat etiquette: Ladies, but not gentlemen, may remove their hats while enjoying afternoon tea. It seems they can also toss their titfers to the ground.

    Probably were under instruction to keep still for a minute or so.
  • Jack Falstaff said:
    Now those two ladies look suspiciously like mother and daughter, so could this be the propietor's family posing for an all-important publicity post-card? Sunday clothes, mother to anwer to if they don't get it right..... it's no wonder the poor things look wooden. And, Oh I do hope father didn't step on his nice new billy-cock hat when he got up!
  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
    Well, I guess Michiel2005 is right, posing for a while didn't exactly make for spontaneous snapshots, but maybe you're right too Jack Falstaff. Maybe they weren't resting tourists! And thanks for billycock! Didn't know that was what these hats were called. Apparently also bombín in Spanish speaking parts...
  • Jack Falstaff said:
    You're welcome, Carol. It was also known as a Derby in the USA, but more generally in the UK (when Jack was a lad, which is a long time ago) as a Bowler (after the name of the original makers) and,much more rarely if memory serves, as a Coke Hat (because it was created in the mid-nineteenth century for Edward Coke, brother of the Earl of Leicester).

    Charming scene would be great foe a publicity shot.
