" ... 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.

Architecture of Dublin is always amazing! ...

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

If I'm expected to produce extra sticky buns, then I need at least 24 hours' notice... 😀

maybe the man was feeling a bit under par? - or could French have captured a rare case of spontaneous human combustion - it once helped Dickens with a storyline !

When a building in Sturt Street was demolished in 1968, a crowd of curious onlookers gathered to inspect the contents of a time capsule, unearthed from within a cavity in the foundation stone of the building. The building was the Townsville Ambulance centre, on the corner of Sturt and Stanley Streets and the time capsule was really just a rusty old tin that had been sealed with solder and placed in the foundation stone of the building when it was built in 1904. At a special ceremony to mark the laying of the foundation stone for the ambulance building in 1904, Mr F. Johnson, a life member of the QATB, had the honour of tapping the stone into place. A plaque inscribed with the names of QATB office bearers, fashioned by monumental masons Melrose and Fenwick, was also attached to the foundation stone. Unfortunately, when the building was being demolished in 1968, vandals smashed the plaque on the foundation stone and it had to be patched up. Despite being only a little over 60 years old, the building which had been designed by Townsville architects Messrs Eaton, Bates and Polin, was undergoing demolition because it had been sold to the MLC company, who intended to erect a modern, six-storey office block on the site. The Townsville branch of the QATB had moved to a new, purpose-built premises in Hugh Street, Currajong, in May 1967, after having outgrown its Sturt Street home.
