None of the commecial signs - Gilbey's, Murphy's, Fry's Chocolate give any clear indications for dating.
Bernard Healy said:
Okay - I think a fair case could be made for a post-1901 dating. Dromdaleague (sic) & Dromdaleague Town are both found in the Bredagh Electoral District in the 1901 and 1911 Censuses respectively. Have a look at the first page of the building returns for each census - 1901: www.census.nationalarchives.ie/reels/nai000587781/ 1911: www.census.nationalarchives.ie/reels/nai002012724/ Now, Samuel Kingston's pub is found at House 7 in both returns, so I'm confident that we're dealing with roughly the same part of town. However, in 1901, there's no trace of (Richard) Kingston's Hotel with 21 windows in front. Indeed, having searched the other pages of the 1901 census's building return, I can't find trace of any hotel of that size in Drimoleague. So I suspect that the hotel was built post-1901.

Long's are up and Callaghan's are down

Streetview: www.google.com/maps/@51.7471149,-8.7382878,3a,75y,108.38h... Long's has become O'Hara's, but all the buildings are well preserved

It is remarkable how little has changed, except the trees are gone. From the September 2009 streetview - goo.gl/maps/58dZ6fL1RxnkPxiD8 -

Buildings are no help with dating, houses are from 1820, church spire 1856, church railings 1860, says the NIAH.

There is an earlier image with lots of differences, notably a large Town Hall (?) on the right - catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000338239 . What is the story here?
Niall McAuley said:
Fashion wise, the lady in Long's doorway is nearer 1900 than 1865.

West Cork for the summer? Heaven!

Looks like they kept the door but now it's facing away from the corner and is a bookies. I do remember when the PO was there. I grew up 4 miles away.

That`s a West Cork deck
or small shipwreck.

The Railway Hotel building is listed a c. 1900 in NIAH, but with a big error bar of 1880-1920.

The post office is listed as 1907.
