    That Dev lurking in at the side of the camera Carol?
  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
    ClickKen04 Definitely Eamon de Valera! Hoping that's Margaret Pearse on the other side of the newsreel camera. Also hoping for help in identifying others...

    That is Cathal Brugha front and centre with the hat and mac. Brugha died of wounds received in action against Free State troops on 7th July, 1922. Either Wikipedia is wrong with his date of death or the date in the catalogue is incorrect. Worthy of further research methinks.
  • ClickKen04 said:
    Cheers Carol. Interesting of who might be who in this collective of political & Social Irish personnel of the time!
  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
    John Thanks, should have recognized Cathal Brugha myself. You're absolutely right - Brugha died on Friday, 7 July 1922, so that blows our original dating out of the water...

    The card was originally monochrome but has been poorly colourised.

    There is another photo from the same series, from further away -
    www.historicalpicturearchive.com/shop/pictures/arbutus-co...

    ... which makes me think this is the building, with later additions. Door, window positions, and chimneys match, if you disregard the extension on the right - maps.app.goo.gl/jLZLmLtt9j99izTMA

    Ed. And the rock face close behind.

    Ed.2 And the corrugated iron roof.

    "History of Arbutus Cottage (Gap of Dunloe)

    19th-Century Furniture Hub: Built in the 1880s, the cottage originally served as the workshop for master cabinet maker James French. French specialized in "Killarney work"—intricate woodwork and furniture carved and inlaid with native arbutus and bog oak timber found in the Killarney National Park.

    Royal Seal of Approval: The cottage's workshop was so renowned that in April 1885, the Prince and Princess of Wales (later King Edward VII and Queen Alexandra) visited the property to view the famous inlaying and carving industry firsthand."
