    I always imagined myself strolling with an elegant greyhound or afghan hound wearing something very stylish. Instead I have a beagle whom I walk wearing jeans and hair in braids. Fantastic photo!!

    Or maybe Mesopotamia? Allied troops, but the gun on the limber looks rather like a German 10 cm field gun with a Krupps breech... but don't trust me on this one, I'm far from sure, there's bound to be someone around who will tie it down for certain, Carol.

    I'd guess Boer War? Could be something to do with Robert Baden Powell, the founder of the Scout Movement....? Looks like that type of uniform, but I am not an expert at all in Militaria!
  • Swordscookie said:
    I'd be inclined to agree this smells more Boer War than WW1! The gun could be a Krupps, I thought at first a captured Boer Creusot but the carriage looks unlikely for that.
  • Swordscookie said:
    I may have to eat my words! This looks a lot more like a Creusot Long Tom than British field piece! The carriage is similar also which would make it a captured Boer field piece. These guns played havoc with the British troops and proved to be more than a match for British artillery. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/155_mm_Creusot_Long_Tom

    It looks like a scene from the end of some sort of action judging by the debris lying around. The horses are also out of harness.

Taken at Tycor? Seems so...

    Tycor Road today.

    Niall McAuley Perfect, thanks! Wonder if it was a biggish house that's not showing on the OSI.
  • Paul O'Farrell said:
    There doesn't appear to have been much in Tycor (or Ticor as it was spelt on the OSI maps back then) when this photo was taken. The nearest big house would probably have been the Manor of St. John in Lisduggan. This is Tycor on the 25" OSI map maps.osi.ie/publicviewer/#V1,658965,611881,6,9
  • Paul O'Farrell said:
    There does not appear to have been any Powers living in Tycor around this time, I wonder if this was taken at Mrs Powers parents house, if so it might possibly have been at the home of Walter and Ellen Hearne. Walter was a caretaker at the waterworks in Tycor and was 72 in 1911. The house in the photo looks more like a small cottage and the kind of place a caretaker might live, bit of a wild guess I know:) 1911 Census for Walter Hearne www.census.nationalarchives.ie/reels/nai003503919/

    Here's what you get if you type Tycor house Waterford into google. That house is not on the 25" map, surveyed June 1905.
