    What a lovely little place! :)
  • La Belle Province said:
    This makes me think well of the nuns.
  • Mike | MP-P said:
    This place has a slightly haunting, eerie feeling to it. Perhaps it's the lighting plus the statues in the windows!
  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
    Mike | MP-P Maybe so, but there's always something slightly desolate about an empty classroom, don't you think?

    "The Desolation of An Empty Classroom", now there is a title for a book, poem, photo series, collage, whatever you want. Wonderful photo above. A hint of unease as -MJP- commented. Do I see draughts (checkers) boards on the table there?

    On the OS 25" map, you can see the two greenhouses pictured.

    There is a history of the school and convent available here. "One of the sisters who had a deep and lasting influence on the life of the Convent in Bunclody was Mother Victoire Henahan. She had come to the convent as Superior in 1883 at the age of twenty nine and she was also in charge of the secondary school for a number of years." There's also a picture of one of the classrooms: www.flickr.com/photos/nlireland/6045408726/

    We have come across that round "red hand" sign (bottom left) before, but for the life of me I cannot rember where or when. Is it to do with a cycling club?
  • O Mac said:
    The name over the near shop seems to read "F Guilbride". The only F Guilbride in Newtownbarry on the 1911 census has occupation as Master Miller? He is not shown on the 1901 census. www.census.nationalarchives.ie/pages/1911/Wexford/Newtown...
