- A Glimpse into the Past: A Stunning View of Ardglass Harbour, County Down, Northern Ireland (circa Early 1900s) This evocative photograph captures a moment in time, offering a fascinating glimpse into the past of Ardglass Harbour in County Down, Northern Ireland. The image, titled "The Harvest of the Sea," showcases a bustling scene on the harbour pier where numerous workers are sorting and cleaning fish. The harbour, with its picturesque setting and rugged charm, has long been a vital part of the local community in Ardglass. This photograph, taken circa early 1900s, provides a captivating window into the daily lives of the hardworking men and women who made their livelihoods from the sea. The pier, extending out into the Irish Sea, serves as a backdrop for the laborious process of sorting and cleaning the freshly caught fish. The workers, dressed in heavy coats and hats, are deeply focused on their tasks, their faces etched with determination and concentration. The air is filled with the pungent aroma of the sea and the sound of seagulls calling in the distance.
