This is intended to confuse the uninitiated! Everybody knows that Blarney is in Cork?

Niall McAuley Thinks that the photograph was taken from Blarney Castle, which we featured a few weeks ago.

The date range can be shortened a bit - as one of the tags mentions it was only built in 1875, so the photo isn't really possible before that.
