Looking at the description of this photo this is probably a "culm crusher". Culm crusher for mixing culm (anthracite dust), with yellow clay and water to make culm balls to be used as fuel in a domestic fire.

conry-michael-books.com/0_grinding_stones.html Michael Conry has published a number of books on Culm Crushing! "Culm, the fine gritty and dusty by-product of anthracite mining, was used as a domestic and industrial fuel for almost 400 years in Ireland, and for even longer in other parts of the world. It was burned as a domestic fuel"

Here's a whole history of Culm-bomb making.

I sent an email to Michael Conry - perhaps he can help.

billh35 You must have had to have nerves of steel in this far more "free range" traffic environment.

Good morning all, I hope the snow and frost are not too severe for you? We continue with another photograph from the Hogan-Wilson Collection and taken in Cork around 1921!
