  Having trouble identifying a few photos of Bantry
  Can you help
  
  Former bank perhaps?
  
  Former school???
  
  Church Hall or small church – seems to be an undercroft which may suggest non-RC as the combined hall / church building seems to be a protestant thing in my experience

  I think this is your school.
  See the banner photograph at the top of the page.

  Bottom photo I think is the Former Methodist church (1842) now the Marino Medical Centre.

  Isn’t that near the school too, if not next to it?
  
  Yes the primary makes for a ‘memorable’ landmark on the town square…
  
  The hypocrisy of Irish schools’ boards of management never fails to impress – they actually go out of their way to rip out original fabric in celebration of a centenary or historic occasion. The irony is completely lost on them.
