  I'm more interested in what the Ogham says here!

  Given that it appears to be looking north and there's an island or spit in the background, I'd guess here: maps.osi.ie/publicviewer/#V1,522357,829226,7,9

• Niall McAuley said:

  It is marked on the 25" map at GeoHive, but more imporessive on the Aerial view where its shadow is clearly seen, at Breastagh. According to this Killala page: The markings are still visible and while one side is unclear, the other reads “MAQCORBRIMAQAMLOITT” – The Son of Corbbri, Son of Amloitt. Local folklore states that the stone commemorates the grandson of King Amhalgaidh (the name Killala possibly originates from Cill Amhalgaigh: The Church of Amhalgaigh).

  Here is an aerial shot from Bing.

  Niall McAuley Right enough: www.megalithicireland.com/Breastagh%20Ogham%20Stone.htm looks a bit more like it than www.megalithicmonumentsofireland.com/COUNTIES/MAYO/Kilroe...

  National Library of Ireland on The Commons Morning Mary is out of control! Do you think photographs grow on trees here at Library Towers?? :)

• Niall McAuley said:

  This one is very early. I was wondering if there were really no tram tracks at all. Looking at the roofline beyond the GPO I see this building from 1863, but not this one beyond it from 1869, which is present in today's other shot from 190x. If no trams, definitely before 1872 in any case.
