    Looks like it would have to be the view up the Albet Road: maps.osi.ie/publicviewer/#V2,488634,659984,12,9

    You have outdone yourself with those opening few words. Nothing like a good smile to get the day started. Thanks.

    We visited the Stella Maris Hotel in the distance previously, with the flag fluttering in familiar fashion -

    Bad case of chimney pot gobbling. I see the poster on the coach advertises "Cheap Executions"... Death by donkey??

    Kilkee has hardly changed over the years, the line and layout of most of the buildings is still the same,

    In this series to date I would think it is fair to say that the original photographs are much better than their latter day cousins. I suppose this could be down to the professionalism of the photographers?, but I feel that the latter day men and women had to deal with a much more cluttered and busy Ireland. For instance the motor cars and the telegraph pole in particular ruin this photograph. Also notice that there has beed extensive rebuilding to the main part of the premises, the chimneys and roof seem to be new as are the bay windows.

    catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000339328 Reverse view with donkey and little box cart. Same type of one above with rear door open side walls of box look thick. Insulated ? Pavement looks to be wet beside it. Delivering ice ? There is also a few posters in left hand window of the Clare Bar.

    Why don't trees grow in Killkee?
