Hold onto your hat there Mary...

"Railway bridge, in an unidentified location" is likely on the Dublin/Drogheda line north of Amiens street, Dublin

    I was thinking Memorial Bridge (?) in Dublin City Centre but it looks too short for that?
  • Carol Maddock said:
    *cough* Hargrave not Hargreave.
  • Niall McAuley said:
    It looks as if there are points near the camera, suggesting that this is the whole bridge - quite short all right.
  • derangedlemur said:
    Looks a bit forrin to me.

    I'm going to stick my neck out and say that the distant signal with a swallow-tail and a bobble and spike on top is a GWR feature and we should maybe be looking in the UK.

Town scales, in the market square, Donegal town

    The scales are marked on the 25" OSI Map as "W.M." (Weighing Machine.)
  • O Mac said:
    Francis McGolrick... Baker census 1901 and McGoldrick..with the "d" census 1911
  • Sharon Corbet said:
    According to Donegal Town Website: "The weighing of produce always took place on the Diamond in full view of the public. This was not just a chance arrangement. The same borough charter made it incumbent on the patentee to appoint a weight-master to ensure that all goods between buyer and seller be weighed, charging a halfpenny for every draught under a hundred-weight and a penny a draught for every hundredweight over that with the exception of potatoes which had to be weighed free of charge. There was an iron triangle which was a permanent fixture bedded into the ground on the Diamond and the scales were suspended from this. It was about six feet high. The scales and weights were kept in the yard, or shambles, behind the market hall and wheeled out to the Diamond on Market Day. Sam Glenn became lessee of the markets and Diamond in 1890..."

    Sam Glenn in the 1901 Census - possibly one of the guys in the photo?
  • O Mac said:
    I was wrong about the shop letters above being the last letters of McGolrick . The proportions of the building wouldn't allow such a long name. It's more likely to be Margaret Craig..widow who has a William Kelly, baker, also living in her 4 windowed bakery
