Ardglass Barrels Level Lighthouse Pier
EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this evocative image of Ardglass Pier and Lighthouse in County Down, Northern Ireland. This low level view captures the rustic charm of a bygone era, as boats gently bob in the water and barrels line the pier, their contents long since unloaded. The lighthouse stands proudly to the left, a beacon of safety and guidance for seafarers navigating the rugged coastline. Located in the picturesque village of Ardglass, this pier and lighthouse have been a landmark of County Down for over a century. The pier, which stretches out into the Irish Sea, has played a vital role in the local fishing industry, providing access to the rich fishing grounds off the County Down coast. The image, believed to have been taken in the early 1900s, offers a glimpse into the past, when life was simpler and the rhythm of the sea ruled supreme. The boats, with their distinctive sails and rigging, add to the sense of history and tradition, while the barrels, once filled with fish or other cargo, now serve as a reminder of the hard work and dedication of the local fishermen. The lighthouse, with its distinctive red and white stripes, has been a constant presence, guiding ships safely into Ardglass Harbour for generations. Its powerful beam continues to shine out to sea, a testament to the resilience and determination of the people of Ardglass and their connection to the sea. This beautiful photograph is a must-have for anyone with a love of history, the sea, or the natural beauty of Northern Ireland. Transport yourself back in time and experience the magic of Ardglass Pier and Lighthouse.
