    This looks like the images from the 1875 Health Survey in Sydney. Same pigmentation, same jumble of items. I wonder where his steam engine was kept.

    maps.osi.ie/publicviewer/#V1,715621,729918,7,9 It appears to have been Waldron's bridge at the time. Or possibly Wooden Bridge: maps.osi.ie/publicviewer/#V1,715582,729853,7,7

    Most unusual image of the Dodder and its water hazards. In my time I've kayaked down that but only when there was lots of rain for a week or two beforehand. The Dodder is one of the most exciting rivers for kayaking but rarely has enough of a flow.

    The sawmill was a calico printing factory at the time of the 6 inch survey, so it would seem to be after that.
  • derangedlemur said:
    6-inch seems to have been 1837, so that doesn't tell us anything we didn't already know. 25-inch is 1911, also useless.

    The two men remind me of Keaton and Chaplin. Mainly based on the hats.
