18th July 1959 my honeymoon was spent in Bray, County Wicklow. We stayed with Mrs Madge McGrath, a cousin of my father (Joseph Devlin). My strongest memory is the friendliness of the people, and my husband enjoyed the Guinness.

A pleasing picture of the little pier at Schull. All is quiet, with rowing boats and a yacht moored in the small bay. Note the car at the entrance to the quayside.

Another view of the pier, with a fishing boat drawn up against the harbour wall proving a source of interest for a little group of bystanders. The wide sweep of the bay provides shelter for the fishing boats.

A classic scene of the remote west of Ireland. At the entrance to the pier, a group of men stand passing the time of day, watching a group of small boys playing on the rowing boats drawn up on the foreshore. A dog waits patiently. In the background, the tiny village nestles under the slopes of Mount Gabriel.
