    The railway bridge opened in 1878. Nothing else in the photo survives, I think.

    Many of these STPs were revisited by Lawrence/French later, but not this one I think.

    Niall McAuley I think you're right. Note gas works above and on map. geohive.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=9...
  • George FitzPatrick said:
    Niall McAuley Looks a match to the map. Gas works and two chimneys and St Marys mill in the foreground and St Peters C of I in the distance. At a guess taken from railway embankment by the station hence the fence line with sleepers. Edit or maybe the viaduct?

    Siena Convent (see note) - the NIAH say the "Convent chapel added to west by G. C. Ashlin, dated 1876." I think it is there; so after 1876? See - www.buildingsofireland.ie/buildings-search/building/13619...

Am I seeing double once again?

    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.
