A magnificent place to visit if you are only in Dublin for a short time. It has medieval churches, Celtic High Crosses and Round Towers. Today the valley is heavily wooded.

The photographer of this view is Robert French (1841-1917), who was chief photographer for William Lawrence's Photographic Studio in Sackville Street, Dublin. The National Library of Ireland hold the original glass negative in their Lawrence Collection, acquired in 1943 after the firm closed. - catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000325656
The Library of Congress said:
pellethepoet -- I cannot thank you enough! Identifying the photographers who took the images published as photochroms is a long-standing dream. There's so much more to be learned from knowing who provided the photos and the other purposes they might have been used for. Better dates for the image content being one basic aspect. I'll let trialsanderrors know, too. (And we'll update our catalog record to add Robert French's name and the link to NLI.) Very best, Helena (LOC)
pellethepoet said:
The Library of Congress No problem Helena. Thanks for your response. I'm pretty confident the majority of the other Irish photochroms in the series will also turn out to be from the Lawrence collection. I'll let the NLI's merry band of Flickroonies know, and I'm sure you'll be peppered with corresponding photos and links.

25" map The location shown in Flickr for this one is, shall we say, somewhat approximate.
National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
Thanks Niall McAuley. I've shifted it South a little bit. (FYI - When I click the '25" map' link above, I see the Mall, Waterford...)

National Library of Ireland on The Commons Thanks for the heads-up: my Geohiving method is not as simple as I hoped! I think it should be good now.
National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
Brill. Thanks Niall McAuley. That's helped me to properly correct it now. GRMA!
