    From Wikipedia 1903:19–27 July - First visit to Ireland as monarch of King Edward VII,[1] landing at Buncrana.

    No, not that one: 1904: In 2nd May 1904 King Edward visited Waterford. He travelled from Dun Laoghaire, County Dublin via Kilkenny, arriving at Waterford North Station at 12:50 p.m. The station was decorated in crimson and a salute was fired by the HMS Aeolus, which was stationed in the river along three other ships. The King was entertained by the mayor James A. Power at a reception in City Hall. The Royal party then visited the Waterford Show. The Royal party proceeded to the Waterford South Station to take the 16:05p.m train to Lismore. Before departing the King knighted the Mayor on the platform. The King then took the train to Lismore where he was greeted by the Duke of Devonshire and other dignitaries.

    That Grandstand looks like a permanent structure, was the Show at a racecourse? I see one in Tramore...

    "Date: between ca. 1901 and 1954" Shall we say it's rather unlikely to have been anytime after May 1910? 8-)
