"History of Arbutus Cottage (Gap of Dunloe)

19th-Century Furniture Hub: Built in the 1880s, the cottage originally served as the workshop for master cabinet maker James French. French specialized in "Killarney work"—intricate woodwork and furniture carved and inlaid with native arbutus and bog oak timber found in the Killarney National Park.

Royal Seal of Approval: The cottage's workshop was so renowned that in April 1885, the Prince and Princess of Wales (later King Edward VII and Queen Alexandra) visited the property to view the famous inlaying and carving industry firsthand."

William Joseph Norton (2 November 1900 – 4 December 1963) was an Irish Labour Party politician who served as Tánaiste from 1948 to 1951 and from 1954 to 1957, Leader of the Labour Party from 1932 to 1960, Minister for Social Welfare from 1948 to 1951 and Minister for Industry and Commerce from 1954 to 1957. He was a Teachta Dála (TD) from 1926 to 1927 and from 1932 to 1961. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/William_Norton

Cummins (tick), Norton (tick), Leinster Leader (tick). bingo!
Leinster Leader - Saturday 13 June 1931:

A declaration in the Leinster Leader of Saturday 14 January 1933 names Liam Cummins as the election agent and William Norton the candidate in the County Kildare constituency.

So without trying (yet) to find the agent-candidate combo for other elections, 1932 and 1933 are in the frame.

Taken in 2091 - how did they manage that? Was Mr Figgis a Time Lord?

Darrell Edmund Figgis (Irish: Darghal Figes; 17 September 1882 – 27 October 1925) was an Irish writer, Sinn Féin activist and independent parliamentarian in the Irish Free State. The little that has been written about him has attempted to highlight how thoroughly his memory and works have been excised from Irish popular culture. From - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Darrell_Figgis With a Homburg hat placed at a jaunty angle and sporting a perfectly trimmed ginger beard, in which he took inordinate pride, the impeccably dressed Darrell Figgis was a familiar sight in war-torn Dublin.

Possibly a Georgian doorway? Red brick to the left, a pillar, and a very worn step, not a new building at the time. But only a small step up from the street...
