Here he is again in the same spot with two "mass servers", "killing time at the prison" [??!!] - catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000535065

yes, and i think he must be hiding the cigarette behind him on this one :-)

Could this mean Collins Barracks, as in Michael Collins? It was Victoria Barracks until handed over in 1922, later renamed Collins Barracks.

According to the description on an exhibition of the Hogan-Wilson collection, he was responsible for compiling the collection, so is the Wilson of Hogan-Wilson. (The photographer was WD Hogan).

If it is Collins barracks, and he is at the prison, the District Military Prison was at the north end of the Barracks 25" Map Link

The catalogue says rural village but the buildings say Town to me.

Niall McAuley Agreed!

Niall McAuley It's the Krazy Kataloguers in Library Towers once again!

Any clues from the shop names? Looks like "Household ......." on the shop name at the street corner. Cannot quite read the name on the shop front behind the cart.

Hassett at #9, I think, and Household Bazaar, maybe

Reminds me of a cuckoo clock!

On the OSI 25" there are two large blocks of buidlings listed as granaries facing on to the waterfront just downstream of the ferry crossing. Clear view of any boats coming upstream from Queenstown (Cobh) and control of the east side of the ferry crossing and plenty of space to billet troops. Modern day view on earth view show apartment block and carpark. If this is the place Morning Mary it is for the NLS folder.

In the NLI Fergus O'Conor collection There is a photo on page 5 Title Passage West -taken from a distance. It shows these granaries Like OSI 25" link. I cannot get it to link to that photo it wants to copy whole file.
