English: A photograph believed to have been taken in 1883 which shows the north face of the Armagh Observatory buildings. In the foreground we see the meteorological enclosure on the North Lawn containing the Square Rain Gauge (S2) and the Beckley Automatic Raingauge (Kew). On the roof of the main building we see the Robinson Cup Anemometer by Munroe with its recording apparatus, to the right, and the Campbell-Stokes Sunshine recorder to the left. Attached to the north window of the East Tower we see the metal box that contained the thermometers and behind the East Tower we see a part of the housing of the automatic thermograph by Beckley.
