  Hey! I was there just last week and took a rake of shots but did not try that POV. Nice one Carol.

• Swordscookie said:

  The cathedral is gorgeous, designed by Pugin it is beautifully decorated inside.

• National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:

  Swordscookie Pugin was a busy chap! And you might at least let me know your travel itinerary in advance of departure. Then I could check photos, and you could snoop around while you're gallivanting... :)

  I think the notes to the photo are right, and it is Crosshaven. Streetview

  25" OSI Map including the small creek in the foreground.

• O Mac said:

  The OSI map (1897) predates the photograph as there's no sign of the railway on it. Station building and platform sign visable above. The Cork, Blackrock and Passage Railway (1850) was extended southwards from Passage West to Crosshaven and opened in 1904. Photograph post 1904. Although 1902 mentioned in this history. crosshaven.ie/information/about/crosshaven-railway

  Streetview from a different angle.

  I am being driven batty by the belfry and spire on St Brigid's Catholic Church (Edward Welby Pugin 1869) - when was it added? It might help with a latest date. Red Herring - in 1589 Sir Francis Drake hid from the Spanish Armada in Drake's Pool around the corner to the right - www.yelp.com.au/biz/drakes-pool-crosshaven

  And pointy hill...Looks like somewhere in Wicklow.

• Sharon Corbet said:

  I'd also guess somewhere around Kilmacanogue-ish area.

• derangedlemur said:

  Though there's also pointy mountains in Mayo, of course.
