Robert French - A lot of horse power in these stables!

description

Summary

These are the stables on the Rockingham Estate in Boyle, Co. Roscommon - home to the King family (the Estate, not the Stables!). It looks as if real horse-drawn conveyances and horse power as we know it today were still co-existing quite happily there. The main vehicle is allegedly a Panhard! Let the automotive arguments commence.....Photographer: Probably Robert French of Lawrence Photographic Studios ( http://catalogue.nli.ie/Collection/vtls000313414 ) , Dublin..Date: 1903 (thanks Robinson_Luzo)..NLI Ref.: L_ROY_07331 ( vtls000320086 )

Images from our photo collections that show those magnificent men (and women) in their flying, choo choo-ing, and driving machines... Oh, and we've cheated, we're adding boats and ships, jaunting cars and carriages, trams too and bicycles - we're completely shameless. So, basically any form of transport - air, sea, land - with the exception of two human feet...
