Niall’s virtual diary archives – Tuesday 14th November 2017

Tuesday 14th November 2017: 12.22pm. Location: End of East Pier.

Entirely made of granite and concrete, the East pier here at Dun Laoghaire was once a major hub of commerce for nearly 150 years. Made obsolete by container ships and fishing quotas, it is now empty apart from many walkers and tourists. Surprisingly peaceful though, great view of Dublin bay and the Irish sea as shown below.
