Summary

This reminds me of the Spencer Tracy film, "Bad day at Blackrock" so the question is which Blackrock is it. A really nice Mason shot to start this week...sharon.corbet ( /photos/129555378@N07/ ) Identified the Location as Blackrock Co. Dublin. She tells us that "The cross used to mark the boundary of the city of Dublin:..In the centre of the village is a large block of granite, on which are the remains of an ancient cross; to this spot, which is the southern extremity of the city of Dublin, the lord mayor, with the civic authorities, proceeds when perambulating the boundaries of his jurisdiction."...Photographer: Thomas H. Mason. .Collection: The Mason Photographic Collection ( http://catalogue.nli.ie/Collection/vtls000029624# ) . .Date: ca. 1890-1910. .NLI Ref: M26/24 ( vtls000540155 ) . .You can also view this image, and many thousands of others, on the NLI’s catalogue at catalogue.nli.ie ( http://catalogue.nli.ie )
