NUMBER 722

BENCHMARKS continued
We start off the year with the great pleasure of welcoming a new member to the fraternity of Ye Honourable Company of Benchmark Hunters. J.W., motto - “Dublin for the Sam, Kerry for the holliers” - spotted this one on Main Street, Kilorglin, County Kerry. Well done sir; good to have you aboard. Although unasked, assurances were offered that no members of the family bovidae were inconvenienced in the taking of these pictures.
Below: The 'mark on Main Street in Kilorglin.
 
Above: The 'mark, just to the left of the doorstep, is on this building, named Mangan House, in Kilorglin. Is it perhaps a restaurant?
