"Long shot sea, hills in background, 2 Constables and 2 others at steps or plinth foreground, church with spire…" = ?

    The hills look a bit like the Mournes or possibly the Cooley Mountains so that could put this anywhere between Omeath and Clogherhead (but probably closer to Omeath given how high the hills look). But...the hills also remind me of the profile of the 12 Bens in Connemara so I could be way off!

    Hooray! A "where is this?" photo. I was just about to request one because I'm stuck at home all week after being run over at the weekend.
  • derangedlemur said:
    I think the hills are a bit pointy for Louth/Down. I was thinking more West Cork.Let's see what streetview has to say on the matter.
  • derangedlemur said:
    After a quick look on streetview it could be the Mournes or West Cork. Needs more investigation.

    Quite a long exposure by the looks of it. Another auction poster on the church gate. The church has a sort of C of I look about it, which might help narrowing the search down.

    There is a Blackhall a retired Grocer in Mountbellew in 1911 www.census.nationalarchives.ie/pages/1911/Galway/Mount_Be...
  • derangedlemur said:
    I've done a quick streetview of all the Blackall locations form the census and there's nothing like this. It seems to be a church attached to an ecclesiastical ruin of some sort - maybe an abbey or maybe just an older church.

    Such an unusual shot for a film photograph? It is quite different in its approach and composition to most and very interesting for that reason. I was visiting Galway a lot around then but was more interested in rivers and rugby pitches so I can't help with Mullins but the boy reminds me of myself just a few years earlier.

    A butchers shop, I think - so the kid is dreaming of mince. A look at Google maps shows that the building is intact but painted a startling lime green - and home to a creperie called Zatsuma. A creperie in Galway City. Who'd have guessed that in 1964?

    John Lord Mince, eh? That's what I get for stereotyping children - thinking of a sweet tooth instead of carnivorous tendencies...
  • Niall McAuley said:
    This is as close as I can get in Streetview.
  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
    Niall McAuley Oh don't talk to me! Spent a good 5 minutes trying to get the same view - slithering up and down Shop Street, muttering ominously that if Mr O'Dea could do it, then so could I. Shamefacedly gave up, but I am bloodied but unbowed. Virtual sticky bun (hot from the wholly imaginary NLI oven) for anyone who can get the same view in Streetview...
