    I've eyeballed the 6" and 25" maps of Rockingham, and there are no buildings labelled Kennels as far as I can tell.
  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
    Niall McAuley Presumably in or around there somewhere, Niall. Not too close to the house for barking noise...

    Hi, Is that a turntable?
  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
    Leonard Bentley Hello Leonard. I don't think so. It looks to me like a beautifully paved, but fixed structure. There is a sort of "gutter" all the way around, so presumably it was a washing area?
  • Niall McAuley said:
    The circle is still visible on Google maps. Here is the historic OSI link.
  • Niall McAuley said:
    There are 87 people listed in the Demesne in the 1901 census, including: Jarvis David 26 M England Coachman Bruen Michael 20 M Co Roscommon Stable Boy Domestic Servant Bruen John 19 M Co Roscommon Stable Boy Domestic Servant I think it is likely that those three are here somewhere. There are also many gardeners, gamekeepers, a Steward, a Butler and an RIC constable.

    Also: Kelly John 26 M Kings County Stable Boy Domestic Servant

    he looks no more than 15 or 16. snazzy uniform though.
  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
    [http://www.flickr.com/photos/franmoll] Very snazzy! We have a few photos of him on this day, but I chose this one as the detail on the tunic and helmet is so spectacular...

    National Library of Ireland on The Commons Have you put the others up before or does he show up in numerous books? This looks quite familiar.
