    Yep, looks like a hot plate sitting on top of a white lady's shoe. That is a 1938 license plate there from the looks of things.

    The stuff in this junkyard is nicer than most stuff you can buy at any big box store.

    Could it be near Avoca and would that be the Avoca River? There are old mine workings there.

    Robin Parkes It could. Fergus O'Connor took photos around Wicklow alright.

    I think Robin Parkes is right, and here's the 25" map link.

    Robin Parkes It is hard to tell from modern photos but I think that you are right Robin. There are a few on Flickr and this came up as well. I think that this is a close modern shot of the mines. www.visitwicklow.ie/attractions/avoca_mines.htm Well done!

    Here is Jane Byrne, shopkeeper, 56, of Templehusk, Ovoca, Wicklow. Oddly, in 1911 she's 75, while her nephew Martin has mutated into her brother and lost 3 years!
