    Architecture of Dublin Nice! Thank you for posting. Quite similar image, but from another angle, with the round tower in view. /Anna B.

    First! (I have nothing sensible to say).
  • derangedlemur said:
    Apparently the chancel of St. Macartin's was enlarged in 1889. I can't tell from the photos if that's happened already in the older one though.
  • derangedlemur said:
    St. Michaels:" Largely built between 1870-75 to just above the belfry – the spire was added more recently. The interior is large and gloomy..."
  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
    derangedlemur Which/where is St. Michael's?
  • derangedlemur said:
    The barn on the right. "more recently", incidentally seems to mean mid '90s, so it's not in the other picture either.

"Quays, Derry City, Co Derry" is actually Derrylin, Co Fermanagh

    I once made a snowman there. I drove to Enniskillen to see some snow (we'd none in Dublin) and stopped at this hotel to look at the lake. While I was there, I built a snowman as well. As per Niall's streetview, it seems to have melted.

    Steamboat, Lough Erne

    "When it became clear that [a proposed steamboat passenger service] could not compete with the railway, [John Grey Vesey] Porter switched to tourism. In 1873, he opened a hotel and pier at Knockninny, a renowned beauty spot on the upper lake just north of Derrylin (fig 2.15). He redeployed the Knockninny and, from 1880, the Belturbet to ferry passengers from Enniskillen and for excursions on the Upper Lough. These services ceased with his death in 1903 and both vessels were scrapped during the first world war."
