I think Mr French / Lawrence made a distinction with this photo, calling it "Barrack" in the small white print bottom left, when the other 'similar items' refer to "Depot". Was this the dormitory for the R.I.C. officers or cadets? Streetview - www.google.com.au/maps/@53.3523713,-6.2999991,3a,60.6y,69... which shows double windows where there is one in the photo (see note).

It's not entirely clear on the 25" OSI, but it looks like it may be part of the complex next door.

Sharon Corbet If I'm reading the map correctly, I think the railway tunnel runs underneath.

The DIA has two entries. The main one is for the RIC Police Depot, now Garda HQ, but there is also this 1894 ref. to a Metropolitan police barrack.

At this page from a guidebook to the Park there is a pic with a caption: Closing of Parkgate garda station circa 1930. The station had been a DMP barracks. left to right back row Sgt Thomas Keaveney plain clothes, gárdai Flynn, Thornton, McMahon (plain clothes), Delaney. Front row Park Ranger John Manning salutes Sgt Thomas Kelly. Note old DMP-style pointed helmets and the new flat Garda hat worn by the gárdai. The plain clothes gárdai constituted a vice squad for the park

Sure are a lot of peeps there,,,,

Man! What were they shooting with back then? A pinhole camera and ISO 3200 film? The full sized version is a mess! Remind me never to complain about the noise in my DSLR again!
