" ... The course opened on Saint Stephen's Day 1894 with nine holes. It was extended to eighteen holes in 1896 with a new clubhouse and a further nine holes were added in 1971. ... " From - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portmarnock_Golf_Club So is this tin shed the old or new 1896 clubhouse - catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000043310 ??

The wiki article above has this photo with "c1900" which implies the tin shed was the new clubhouse.

There are terraces of tall houses/chimney stacks on the skyline. Looking at the 25" 1900ish map, the only possibility I see is Baldoyle.

He needs to improve his swing, I'd say.

Joefuz Indeed. He's keeping his head down, but his stance and swing could use some work :) (And those young fellas are standing in the worst/best possible place to get a t-box clobbering!) Still though - better dressed for it than I'll ever be :)

At the time of the photo both the golf links and the racecourse were on the low lying reclaimed land behind the main beach in Tramore. The sea broke through the sea wall , i think in 1914 and drowned both the links and race course which were both rebuilt in locations higher up in the town in later years. Brownstown head is in the background in the photo
