    From Streetview, it looks as if the carved stones at ground level have been moved, presumably indoors somewhere...

    O Mac It is indeed. There're lovely street signs up on the corner behind the cross.

    So there is!!.... The gas lighting looks abandoned. No mantle, no glass, bent poles. That thingimabob far right is a "Tumbling Paddy". Used for gathering up loose hay. When so much was gathered it flipped itself and off it went so on.

    St Columb's House, Kells?
  • Mike Grimes said:
    St. Columcille's House, Kells, Co. Meath. I didn't think it was a church. The door was in the wrong place, normally they would have been on a gable end, wouldn't they? en.wikipedia.org/wiki/St._Columb%27s_House And here's a more up to date shot. www.pinterest.es/pin/222435669068993270/

    There are other versions available in the catalogue with varying amounts of ivy.
