This must be one of your earliest photos.

Is it Carrickbrennan? It looks a bit rural to be one of the churchyards in Dun Laoghaire.

DannyM8 Pretty early alright if it is early 1860s for a photo on our Commons stream. This is one of our earliest on here for which we have an exact date - 10th November 1863, but the very lovely Miss Coddington dates from circa 1852...

I wonder where it was? I don't see it on the OS historical maps. From Wikipedia article on Dean's Grange (founded 1861): The Burial Act of 1855 resulted in the closure of many of the older churchyards in Dublin and surrounds due to overcrowding. This drove the need to find new lands for cemeteries.

the DIA has a reference to a house to let on Crosthwaite Park in 1862.

The Dun Laoghaire local wiki has a little bit of info. Including the developer, John Crosthwaite.

The third (1899) V&A was commissioned in July 1901, which might be a latest date for this photo. Interesting Red Herring - there was a copy ship made in 1863 for the Egyptian Royals, and it is still going strong - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/El_Mahrousa
