a quick Google flags up a series of NLI held docs from the 1880s where he seems to have acted as a Government solicitor ?

If the same man he was a resident magistrate.. RM..who took part in the Vandeleur evictions in 1888. Not well liked in Moyasta and beyond.

“Roche's appointment to the position
of Resident Magistrate over other, more senior
Removable Magistrates was questioned, as was
his ability to impartially enforce the Crimes Act,
given his association with the Loyal and Patriotic
Union, a fervently anti-Home Rule organization. '3
Roche's reputation for harsh sentencing and for
self-importance was likewise a cause for complaint
in the House of Commons." In this photograph he
wears a check-pattern yellow-hued suit, which he
wore frequently in the eviction photographs. He
was often recorded as he is seen here, sitting on a
low boundary wall, acting as "judge and jury', in the
summary sentencing of those who resisted eviction.
He was remembered later with his hat rakishly riding
forward on the bridge of his nose as he sentenced the
evicted tenants on the spot”

Eoin Thanks a million, Eoin! If you have a sec, cast your expert Cork eye over the location for me, and make sure you're happy with it... Have it right at the junction itself - do we need to do a bit of "left a bit, right a bit"??

This was the link line that connected Corks mainline station(Kent) with the long gone terminus of the West Cork Railway at Albert Quay. St Patricks church in the background. PS. Note the bell in the drivers hand.
