Robert French photo without the local colour - catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000323192

There's a great big eagle perched on the porch (thanks megazoom). In the French photo too.

beachcomber australia I'd be nearly sure that this is that same eagle It's up the road at the entrance to Eagle Lodge which was once the hotel owners house.

This photo could possibly have been taken before gas lighting was available in the area. The French photo has a gas light over the portal. When was gas (gasworks) available in the area?

Bridge St, NLS, sadly

The coronation of Edward VII and his wife, Alexandra, as king and queen of the United Kingdom and the British Dominions took place at Westminster Abbey, London, on 9 August 1902. Originally scheduled for 26 June of that year, the ceremony had been postponed at very short notice, because the King had been taken ill

The poster says 26 June, so it was put up before the cancellation, and would surely have been replaced before the event.

The dia says the PO was built 1895-97, but cryptically adds Fittings 1904 dia.ie

The other poster is for the Adder, a steamer sailing between Belfast and Ardrossan in Scotland.
