    Probably were under instruction to keep still for a minute or so.

    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).

    Glencar Hotel on the 25" map at GeoHive.
  • O Mac said:
    That could be James Moriarty, occupation "Driver" living in the Glencar Hotel in 1901. Still there 1911. He appears a few times in the collection. catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000322543

    Flickr is sometimes amazing! A little to the right via Marcial Bernabéu Interesting geological details included. There seem to be more trees nowadays.

    beachcomber australia Really amazing :-)
  • B-59 said:
    This photo was probably taken somewhere here: Street View 2011
  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
    Thanks B-59. I've mapped it to the same cross-roads. I don't suppose there's any chance we'd be able to refine the date too much. But, presumably, we're closer to the middle of the range. Rather than either of its extremes....

    How do I get a little sidecar like that these days.
