    I had the pleasure of going to secondary school in Rosscarbery. Once a month we got to go canoeing on the lagoon. I used to love going for walks to The Warren or down the other side to the pier. The photo must have been taken from up in Ardagh West up by the Ardagh Boys N.S.

    L_CAB_07936 nearby shows the Mercy convent at Rosscarbery, which the DIA puts at 1898

    Marked on the 25" map as "Summerhill House", that building across the water mid left has a closer view - catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000332619
  • Niall McAuley said:
    L_CAB_07941 in the other direction is Kilcullen, less likely to be close in date, but a newspaper poster mentions the Land Act. If after 1898, likely 1903 or 1906.

    George FitzPatrick Excellent, thank you. 4168 is quite a high number, so would you reckon quite late in the 1904 to 1913 timespan?
