Thinking Innisfallen. There are several other stereo pairs there, but I can't find a match for the boathouse. See the distant hills here - catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000564217

Hmmm ...
There is a substantial "Boat House" marked on the 25" map, west of Ross Castle, on Ross Island. About here on the GoogleMapsSatellite which shows nothing - maps.app.goo.gl/kiLUkFwL4qNjBjQM7

beachcomber australia Link not working too well.

National Library of Ireland on The Commons Thanks, fixed above. Nothing to see except trees and rocks. But if you twiddle round into 3D the shape of the hills is similar and the sun is in the right place when looking sout-west.

I wonder is that the now-lost boathouse just downriver from Lord Brandon's cottage?

Here's a Streetview from the western shore of the Upper Lake, looking west - note the distinctive 'bump' to the left of the cloud-covered mountains - it has a steep step at right and a uniform slope at left, just like the bump to the left of the taller mountains in our boathouse photo.

Less than 100m NW of the point where Peng Shi took that panoramic image in 2023 is the site of a boathouse which lies 290m SW of Lord Brandon's Cottage - the boathouse is shown on the Ordnance Survey 6" map (1st edition), but it's just marked as a Quay on the last edition. The boathouse seems to be about 18m long on the first edition map, so it could be the one in the photo.

Whose lights are fled, whose garlands dead!

There's a similar view beside it in the catalogue which confirms that it is a church: catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000565021

Rathmullan Carmelite Friary, Co Donegal: irishantiquities.bravehost.com/donegal/rathmullan/rathmul... Streetview: www.google.ie/maps/@55.0940141,-7.5359562,3a,75y,324.17h,...

The friary was later converted into a fortified house, and there's a photo of that in the STP collection too: catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000565020

Fred, Jim, and John ? These characters look very familiar.

They had fun that day! Up the top of the tower - catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000565023 Then reverse view from the beach - catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000565024

The view through the trees.

It's a blind guess but could it be Sugar Loaf?

I think it's Cromwell's Bridge in Glengarriff.
Niall McAuley said:
617 next door in the catalogue says Cromwell's Bridge, Glengariff
beachcomber australia said:
It has lost several arches since then. Here at latest 1883 via British Library
Niall McAuley said:
I am a bit doubtful, several sources seem to suggest Cromwell bridge was a single arch.
