Mr French / Lawrence's tripod was up near the clock tower outside a very tatty court house. The clock tower has posters, an electric lamp on top, but no clock - a timeless photo - catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000320117 See also the rock dish (?) and various similar horse apples implying the same day.

I wonder if this is before or after the 1911 Portumna Bridge? en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portumna_bridge Shannonview - goo.gl/maps/zph2hRKnLgBZgBCNA ??

maso1961 Good find. From your link. In 1896 an agreement was made between the Office of Public Works in Ireland and the Shannon Development Company Limited to inaugurate a new service of passenger steamers on the Shannon. The Countess Cadogan, measuring 70 ft by 14 ft x 7 ft was one of these steamers. Built in Paisley in Scotland by Fullertons or McLachlans as a steam lighter in 1897, her tonnage was 53 gross tons with a nominal horsepower of 14. The steam engine was a 12 inch compound manufactured by J McArthur of Paisley.

A couple more Lawrence views of the S.S. 'Countess Cadogan' at Killaloe. She does not seem to be in the first flush of youth, ie not near 1897 - catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000332837 catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000541270
