    Here's a page about employment in Ireland 1910/11 but there's no specific figures in it, sorry.

    I would estimate anything from £10 per year to £18, depending on the house.
    That might even be a bit on the generous side.

    If you can find some online newspapers with 'Situations Vacant' ads, you'll get a better idea.
