CASSIDY PHOTOGRAPHY said:
I guess Robert French did not own a carpenter's spirit level. Note the roof line of the distant building is sloped. I am sure it was not built in the style of Pisa. Sometimes the simplest tool from a hardware store and without a photographic brand name can be used to improve photography. A spirit level is just one item.

It's a shame the smaller posters on the right are not clearer, I am sure that the solution to the date of this photo lies within.

NIAH website tell us it was built between 1875 and 1885 yet sign over the door reads 1880!! No civil engineering building! The NIAH says the then Chemistry and Physics labs were built 1905-1915 while the Dictionary of Irish Architects records show the labs built 1909-1911. Even before the labs were built I think we ought to be able to see the Carrigside and/or Edler Wood terraces on College Road. They were built---again according to NIAH---in 1880's . Terraceview So I think taken around 1880/85 when it was brand spanking new.! Gullgle

25" OSI map showing the observatory with the same path layout. No civil engineering building/physics and chemistry labs. Carrigside Terrace is there, but there is an empty space where Elder Wood should be.

The houses on the left hand side of the Carrigrohane Road are still there while the garage has made way for UCC student accommodation. The road layout is still the same.

A smashing view of Cork :) With lots to see. While I would normally be chomping-at-the-bit to mansplain my way through any Cork photo, I've gotta head out the back again. And weigh down the fallen garden fence-panel. And retrieve the lifted shed felt-panel :) Stay safe all today. And certainly don't go trying to recreate this shot. Certainly not at lunchtime when this Ophelia tracking site suggests the County Hall will be taking a brunt of it :)

CASSIDY PHOTOGRAPHY: "Attendees: Governor Kate Warner, Tasmania Premier Will Hodgman, et al" Don't get me wrong. I like Al :) He's just a divil for the free sausages at these things. Al would show up at the opening of an envelope - if it meant free nibbles :)
