    There might be some Irish political prisoners among them, but they look like they are from Africa, unless the photo was underexposed.

    “Convicts being searched on return from work”
    The work was in the stone quarries, early 1900s

    I had always thought that that ‘crows-foot’ design was just an invention in kid’s cartoons from my youth

    The card was originally monochrome but has been poorly colourised.

    There is another photo from the same series, from further away -
    www.historicalpicturearchive.com/shop/pictures/arbutus-co...

    ... which makes me think this is the building, with later additions. Door, window positions, and chimneys match, if you disregard the extension on the right - maps.app.goo.gl/jLZLmLtt9j99izTMA

    "History of Arbutus Cottage (Gap of Dunloe)

    19th-Century Furniture Hub: Built in the 1880s, the cottage originally served as the workshop for master cabinet maker James French. French specialized in "Killarney work"—intricate woodwork and furniture carved and inlaid with native arbutus and bog oak timber found in the Killarney National Park.

    Royal Seal of Approval: The cottage's workshop was so renowned that in April 1885, the Prince and Princess of Wales (later King Edward VII and Queen Alexandra) visited the property to view the famous inlaying and carving industry firsthand."
