Gaynors pub is still there, I do remember that the old bridge was washed away a number of years ago in a big storm.

Comments 3. An island, 'sea' mountains. Possibly a wall box, between mid half doors. En peat air, Gaynors.

"Following torrential rain on 18 July 2007, the only river bridge in the village was swept away, cutting the town in half. It was part of the N59 national secondary road and had stood there for 182 years. A permanent replacement bridge was constructed with increased traffic capacity." en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leenaun

Farmer and hotelier in 1901, Manufacturer and hotelier in 1911.

There's no 25" survey. It stops short of the hotel. maps.osi.ie/publicviewer/#V1,487830,761988,7,9 maps.osi.ie/publicviewer/#V1,487830,761988,6,7

James Murry and John Hannerty, Wool Weavers in 1911.

derangedlemur Post 1901 then? And maybe quite late towards 1911? From the census form it looks as if Manufacture was written in almost as an afterthought.

looks like an earthquake turned everything upside down!

I don't know why but this stirs all kinds of unclear memories for me, the confusion, the boxes and the galvanised bucket. the dudeen's not so much but the rest reminds me of old graveyards in the countryside.

A strange sight.

It looks vandalised, but by nature more than people?

Maybe this might shed some light on the presence of clay pipes. www.funeralwise.com/customs/irishwake
