Church (Ruins), Waterville, Co. Kerry
Summary
Labelled as "St. Fininan's Church (Ruins), Waterville, Co. Kerry", we have an interesting photo from the Eason Collection to start off the week. We are in the Kingdom, and as a Dub I am happy to visit Kerry at any time, but I am always happier to visit when "Sam Maguire" is residing in the Capital. (The Dub Mary!)..Based on input from Mosskayree ( /photos/mosskayree/ ) , and corroberation from B-59 ( /photos/66311327@N05/ ) , we have added this photo to our "Possible Cagalogue Correction" tag ( https://www.flickr.com/search/?sort=date-taken-desc&safe_search=1&tags=Possible catalogue correction&user_id=47290943@N03&view_all=1 ) . It seems that this is actually very likely Derrynane Abbey ( Derrynane_Abbey ) , on the appropriately named Abbey Island, near the town of Caherdaniel in County Kerry. Mossy and beachcomberaustralia ( /photos/beachcomberaustralia/ ) offer some additional detail on the history and folklore surrounding the abbey in the comments - including its connection to the O'Connell family of Derrynane ( O'Connells_of_Derrynane ) ........Photographer: Unknown..Collection: Eason Photographic Collection ( http://catalogue.nli.ie/Collection/vtls000033799 ) ..Date: between ca. 1900-1939..NLI Ref: EAS_2386 ( vtls000558112 ) ..You can also view this image, and many thousands of others, on the NLI’s catalogue at catalogue.nli.ie ( http://catalogue.nli.ie )
