Having great success in identifying images today! Still foxed by some so here's more offerings in our series of infuriating photo location riddles😉1. spoliated (??) stag deer sculpture embedded in modern dressed masonry 2. Heraldic plaque w/ 1649 & T.N. on it. Possibly #Galway?

@LallyUltan @keithleosmith @JackmanNeil @MonasticIreland @AoibheannNiD @colleenmthomas @Mayo_History @LangtryDavidSQ @J_MZed @avrilomalley The photographer was Helen Hooker O'Malley who lived in Burrishole Lodge with her husband Ernie and children. It is just behind the bank of trees you can see beyond the ruin on the far side of the inlet.

This week's challenge for eagle-eyed #twitterstorians with knowledge of #Ireland - can you identify this location showing high crosses along a waterline with a ruined church in the background? Hint: #WildAtlanticWay, #Mayo, cc #medievalTwitter

@LangtryDavidSQ @keithleosmith @JackmanNeil @MonasticIreland @AoibheannNiD @colleenmthomas @Mayo_History There but now much overgrown with vegetation given the photo is 70+y.0! You can see it in this cropped version of a photo from https://t.co/PdJQZa6W7U

@AoibheannNiD @keithleosmith @JackmanNeil @MonasticIreland @colleenmthomas @Mayo_History @LangtryDavidSQ @J_MZed @avrilomalley @LallyUltan *Face screaming in fear....ME. NEITHER! And I guess that is probably why I assumed the ruin on the far shore was a religious building - which just goes to show how much of a rabbit hole research can be!

@keithleosmith @JackmanNeil @MonasticIreland @AoibheannNiD @colleenmthomas @Mayo_History Heehee, infuriating indeed - we aim to please 😁
Thanks to you all & to new followers @LangtryDavidSQ @J_MZed @avrilomalley @LallyUltan for your sleuthing it as Burrishole! Pic taken 1938, photographer is standing with friary at her back, looking over to ruin of Corraunboy castle

[Gothic Past Ireland @GothicPast]

@JackmanNeil @MonasticIreland @AoibheannNiD @colleenmthomas @Mayo_History There have been some location misattributions in this particular collection so you may well be right.

[Gothic Past Ireland @GothicPast]

@JackmanNeil @MonasticIreland @AoibheannNiD @colleenmthomas @Mayo_History That's where my head was at too. If it was, the crosses would be part of Templemurry cemetery (if the photographer's vantage point were up on the highest part of the site). But the hilly landscape behind the ruin & its relatively small size made me discount Rathfran

@flissina Thank you! x

@colleenmthomas @OldeEire @AoibheannNiD @MEMSLibUKC @MonasticIreland @DiscoverIreland @RSAInews Fantastic! I knew about the RSAI lantern slide collection and had been digging into Europeana with a search on St. N but hadn't yet reached that entry so you saved me a bunch of time -thank you all!!

[Gothic Past Ireland @GothicPast]

@flissina Yes, it's me 👋, still working away on this! So glad you got back and are well - all good on my side, though there are too many oceans between me and mine for now and little sign of that changing for the rest of this year I feel (maybe longer)😟

[Gothic Past Ireland @GothicPast]

@flissina 😂😂🦌I shall rumina[n]t[e] on this as I scout more pics

[Gothic Past Ireland @GothicPast]

One for you, @arranqh perhaps? 😊

[Gothic Past Ireland @GothicPast]

@MEMSLibUKC Ooh, thank you kindly for mention & we hope our archive is a help to #medievaltwitter #medievalart #sculpture #arthistory researchers! Happy to answer any inquiries via DM :-) & we have questions for peeps too! How about helping us identify this #tomb #plaque? Poss #Galway?
