The Rós na Righ was a steam launch[1] which made trips on the Boyne Navigation between Oldbridge and Slane in Ireland. There are many other photos which feature the Rós na Righ which are contained in the William Laurence Photographic Collection.[2] It can be hard to search this collection for examples of these photos below. Photograph 9997 [3] from this collection show Rós na Righ in the foreground and Slane Castle in the background. Photograph 4206 [4] shows Rós na Righ under a man made archway locally referred to as the Scabby Arch [5] on the Boyne Navigation. Photograph 7800[6] show a photo of Rós na Righ at Morgan's/ Rosnaree Lock (a double lock) on the Boyne Navigation.
