Fairground ride and crowd

    This is printed backwards, the boats on the ride travelled clockwise. It is Murphy's Sea on Land which was converted to this appearance in 1894.

The school at Pie Town, New Mexico is held in the Farm Bureau building, which was constructed by cooperative effort (LOC)

    It's Ross Castle in Killarney. goo.gl/maps/nhs8jYEuYUH2

    Mike Grimes Well done! It has been restored, but only from the 1970s, no help with dates. GeoHive OSI 25" map link

    This Welch in the archive is 1900-1910 or 20, and has less ivy, so perhaps a little earlier, moving this one to likely nearer 1920? The Welch does not seem to have the nice new stone walls along the approach visible in todays shot.

    Wikipedia is helpful - there is a photo in the 1890s with much less ivy, which points to this one being later - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ross_Castle includes this gem -
    There is a legend that O'Donoghue leaped or was sucked out of the window of the grand chamber at the top of the castle and disappeared into the waters of the lake along with his horse, his table and his library. It is said that O'Donoghue now lives in a great palace at the bottom of the lake where he keeps a close eye on everything that he sees.
    Edit: The photo is on flickr -
