In Ardglass, today, location of the picture (Mulhall, 2012) showing the Titanic passing the mouth of the then harbour in 1912.
Beside the good value Wateredge Café.

From Ardglass Harbour out into the Irish Sea. Isle of Man visible but camera not conveying the high hills.
Left at 2.45 and those clouds seemed static
Right, an hour later, they did move somewhat.

The castellated angles topping either gable. Large double door. Stonework On a little promontory into the Lough
Lough side view of the front, door in a bad way. Both gables have a cruciform aperture above the door.
Inside the building with its wooden joists, windows. The amount of seaweed suggests the door is no longer effective
Sadly disused boathouse near Castleward. Had previously stored a long boat. Don't think the National Trust owns it.
