    The view counter is standing at 499,953, the kettle is on and the other Marys are baking buns to beat the band.

    I think it's this one: NIAH. "Four-arch road bridge, built c.1660, carrying Bridge Street over the River Camcor. Abutments and piers of random rubble. Single V-cutwater to upstream pier. Soffits altered during five phases. Arches of segmental and semicircular profile. Parapets of random rubble. Upstream parapet replaced with a two bar metal railing towards its south end and downstream one is surmounted by a metal railing. Houses were erected on the upstream and downstream sides and were demolished in the 1970s."

    A local photographer who documented Birr at the turn of the 19th/20th centuries was George Morrison of Cumberland Square, Birr. 21 photos of his are held at the UK National Archives in Kew, including ones with such intriguing and tantalising descriptions as "Photograph of John's Place, Birr. Bread cart opposite Mrs Boner's", "Photograph of John's Place, Birr. Two boys on roadway near Dr Stoneys, No 7 Johns Place, Birr", "Photograph of the coffee bar Leinster depot, Birr barracks" (although the copyright for this one belongs to Edward Morrison). I haven't got a visit to Kew planned, but I'll put them on the list of things to see next time I'm there.

    Is this photo scanned backwards? The original handwriting on the glass plate image is reversed, -or so it seems.
  • John Spooner said:
    CASSIDY PHOTOGRAPHY It looks the right way round judging from the buttons on the tunic of the soldier scratching his chin near the sentry box.
  • beachcomber australia said:
    Which was first? catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000317389 - this one, or catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000330910 - another one.
  • CASSIDY PHOTOGRAPHY said:
    Is it possible the tents were temporary until barracks and administration building were constructed?
