    Well I still live in Brisbane, so not much opportunity to take pictures of places in Wexford, so I'll let someone else post another picture.

    That didn't take long - it's not captioned in the photo album but since he would have been staying at Kilgibbon, near Bree, I suspect that your right. I have a shed load of similar pics but sadly they are all heavily faded like this one. I think I may get some of them scanned to save them for posterity. I'll stick this one up just as an example but there's no way of guessing and its captioned anyway. I doubt anybody in the picture has any headaches now. :D

    Yeeepee!! :D. Although I must admit I've never actually seen that landmark before I used my powers of deduction...is it an old lime-kiln Jay? What type of camera are you using?

    Not Ballycarney (R745 Bridge) - but right River and not a million miles away.

    Well done Zerks...

    It was part of the old Dublin road and once a year I would traverse it on my way to Dublin for the Christmas shopping to Hector Greys.
    What amazed me was the amount of tyre/skid marks on this small stretch of road towards and on the bridge.

    Not sure if its a lime-kiln, I know the mine around it was a lead/copper/silver mine but has now since run dry apart from surface stuff that wouldn't be worth the time for a company to use.

    I'm shooting with a Nikon D80 :)

    Same bridge (with tarmac added) that was there in 1798 as far as I know.
