    Scottish coastal rower here. We row with a crew of four and in our club the bow and stroke (stern) oars are shorter than the others in some of our sets. I imagine the boat these chaps rowed was very similar to our skiffs, which are based on a traditional Fair Isle design. www.flickr.com/photos/hockadilly/23428062580/

    They would never have envisioned a #bridgeclimb as they clambered around up there in space with no OHS to worry about...

    Must be soon after 2/12/1930, the date on this one (see fewer hanging girders) -

    The six-masted sailing ship in the distance (see note) is the 'Helen B, Sterling'. See the bridge being built in this reverse view - Sad history of the Sterling ships - nicolecama.com.au/project/the-sterlings/

A very Purty Kitchen

from National Library of Ireland on The Commons

    EST. 1728 There are almost three hundred year’s of stories buried in our walls. ... ...
    ... There is speculation about how the bar acquired it’s current name ‘The Purty Kitchen’. The local narrative is that an American visitor, who had embarked at Kingstown port, walked up to the door of no. 4 and said to the proprietress, “Say Mamm, you sure have a mighty purty kitchen. ...”

    Via Trove, an 1894 description - trove.nla.gov.au/newspaper/article/115549483?searchTerm=%...

    " ... On the side of this road, past Monkstown, and about a mile from Dunleary, an excellent wayside inn was to be met, where thousands of people resorted, some for refreshments on their way to the sea coast to enjoy the sea breeze ; others went to the grounds to dance, pitch quits, play skittles, and drink genuine Irish whisky or Alley's famed ale at this house, well known as the 'Purty
    Kitchen.' How the house received this name I know not, but I have no doubt it was in consequence of the coppers and pewter plates and dishes upon the dresser. These were kept more for ornament than use, and made as bright as hands could polish them. In fact everything about the kitchen was in first-class order, and it was laughable to hear some of the ladies and gentlemen from Thomas-street and the Liberties of Dublin saying: "Oh, then, Jim, isn't it a purty kitchen? Look at the beautiful coppers and pewters."
    Jim would likely reply after this fashion: "Faith and it's myself would like to be sitting forninst one of thim dishes with a pig's head lying on a palliasse of cabbage upon it, and some good cup potatoes, and a quart of Guinness's stout to wash my dinner down."
    "Just like you, Jim, always thinking of your stomach."
    So the fun would go on at the 'purty kitchen.' ... ..."
