    GeoHive 25" map In this streetview you can see that the buildings on this site now are called RAILWAY STABLES Eiretrains says the station and whole branch line to Tullow closed completely in 1959, so I think this must be early 60s, the tracks are not overgrown yet.

    article on the process of photochrom: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photochrom "A litho stone is coated with a thin layer of purified bitumen dissolved in benzene. A reversed half-tone negative is then pressed against this light-sensitive coating and an exposure in daylight made (taking from 10–30 minutes in summer, to several hours in winter). The bitumen hardens and becomes resistant to normal solvents in proportion to the light. The coating is then washed in turpentine solutions, removing the unhardened bitumen. It is then retouched in the tonal scale of the chosen color to strengthen or soften the tones as required. Each tint needs a separate stone bearing the appropriate retouched image, and prints are usually produced by at least six, and more commonly from 10 to 15 tint stones.[4]"

    This photograph appears on page 171 of the book Yesterday's Tomorrows - the Powerhouse Museum and Its Precursors 1880 - 2005. Captioned: The highly folded skn and dense fleece of American Vermont sheep promised to greatly increase the Australian wool yield. Although they certainlhy contricuted in sone part to the Australian merion genotype, Vermont genes reduced the fineness of many flocks and increased susceptibility to blowfly strike." There is more about Vermont sheep and their wool on pages 172 - 174 of that book. More than a century of breeding has led these sheep to no longer have such pronounced wrinkling it seems. So this photograph is quite the historic curiosity of sheep breeding. Read a bit about it here: www.sheepmagazine.com/issues/28/28-6/Alan_Harman.html
