"The only resident landlord on the island, Mr. William Pike ...", from a very disturbing contemporary Freeman's article about famine on Achill Island in 1880 - trove.nla.gov.au/newspaper/article/133486960?searchTerm=p...

Funnily enough, the only person with the surname Pike who was enumerated in Mayo in the 1901 census was a German-born Church of Ireland jeweller by the name of Eanos Pike who was living as a lodger with the McNamara family in a three-roomed thatched house at Slievemore on Achill Island, not to far away from Glendarary!
Rory Sherlock said:
Looking at the housing and building returns on the 1901 and 1911 censuses, I can't find a house to match Glendarary - there are six pages of records from the townland of Sraheens, but nothing of this size - could the house have been uninhabited as early as 1900?

You can see the class division in action, the gentlemen are on the pavements and the two labourers stand in the gutter.

horse poop and barefoot child. mix of slate and thatch too. the town awaits drains and utility poles. can't see a dog. The image doesn't sell the dreams of a rural/small market town idyll

Remarkably unchanged over the years, most of the buildings still stand. Hard to believe that a small street designed for the horse and cart a century ago today serves as part of the N84 Galway/Castlebar main road with all its heavy traffic. The modern street view looks a lot cleaner than the rather squalid looking street of the photo, despite modern pollution.
