    Looks like the village pump has pumped off, commemorated by a white dot roundabout and a metal cover over the plumbing - Streetview - maps.app.goo.gl/xEEj7YP9W4xucTRc7

    Reverse view in 1911 via Mr Eason. NB cross pieces on the telegraph poles, hinting that today's photo might be earlier than 1911 -

    Looks like the pump (or something) was still there in 1955, when Monkey swung by - See megazoom - catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000733704

    WANTED - A WIFE. Much amusement was created at the Mountmellick Board of Guardians by a labourer named O'Neill applying for a wife. "She need not," he wrote, "be handsome, but homely and hard-working, as beauty is only skin deep, and anyone so gifted, especially one of the female class, spends too much time at the looking glass during the day and neglects her household duties. She must he a good plain cook. With a Mountmellick labourer's wage it is very little she will have to do in the pastry line, which make those tight-laced, hobble-skirted ladies of the present day suffer so much from indigestion and corns. I would like her to be a good singer - or able to play some musical instrument — a mouth-organ or a melodian." The chairman said the lad who wrote that letter needed little assistance in selecting a wife.
