    After 1913 ?

    "Wakeman drew this monument in August 1880. It can be found in a recess in the north wall of the nave, just west of the rood-screen within Sligo's Dominican Friary. This is the O'Craian or Crean tomb of 1506 and is the earliest monument in the church.
    What is immediately noticeable is that the lower part of the tomb was completely buried when Wakeman illustrated it. This is because the Board of Works reduced the ground level to the original level during the restoration of the friary in 1913 by Doctor Cochrane. ... ..."

    “Warke’s Quarry Castlerock
    As with many of the small villages in the Causeway Coast quarrying provided employment for locals as well as a ready supply of building material.
    Castlerock, with its mainline railway connection was no different. Warke’s Quarry was established just behind the village, and the basalt here was worked for many years.
    This Basalt was often used for railway balast.
    This old photograph shows some of the quarry workings and the road leading to the village of Castlerock.”
