Early evening walk around Dalkey

Jul 28, 2021

We took an early evening walk a round Dalkey a few nights back, and this time walked our usual route in reverse, which meant I saw things I’d not spotted before – there’s always so many great details around the town, ranging from boats, to postboxes, weather heated winches, and even a picturesque loo at Coliemore Harbour !

Killiney Beach walk

Jul 13, 2021

There was a stiff breeze blowing along the beach, which seemed to suit the kite surfer whizzing along with Dalkey Island in the background and Cormorants sat patiently on rocks, looking out to sea. Cosmo, our Labrador pup enjoyed playing with his ball in the water and a discarded childs toy peeped out from among the stones.

Rathmichael Cemetery

Jul 11, 2021

11th July

While out on a cycle ride we discovered the Rathmichael Cemetery, which is a hidden gem, at the end of a country lane around the back of Rathmichael.

The ruin of the church is from the middle ages and there’s also the base of a round tower beside it, with many interesting graves in the grounds surrounding the church, including that of Joseph Murphy, a public lamp lighter who died in 1960.

We were also lucky with the weather, as it was a glorious sunny day !
