Glendalough before Round Tower was restored
Summary
Side cars, or perhaps more correctly, Jaunting Cars at Glendalough, Co. Wicklow. We knew this was taken between 1860 and 1883, and the "bare headed" Round Tower has helped us to date it more accurately, as derangedlemur ( 8468254@N02/ ) tells us "The conical roof was rebuilt in 1876 using the original stones".....Date: 1860-1876..NLI Ref.: STP_0023 ( STP_0023 ) ..P.S. Gorgeous Belfast image ( nlireland/5785358121/ ) from a year ago replaced with higher res for your viewing pleasure!
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...
