EDITORS COMMENTS
The Pier, Strangford: A Timeless Scene from Early 1900s Northern Ireland This photograph, taken circa early 1900s, offers a glimpse into the past of Strangford, a picturesque village nestled in County Down, Northern Ireland. The image showcases the pier, a vital connection to the surrounding waters and the town of Portaferry across the Lough. Five boats are moored at the pier, their vibrant colors and distinct shapes adding character to the scene. People can be seen on the boats, likely engaged in fishing or enjoying the day on the water. The serene atmosphere is further accentuated by the tranquil waters and the distant view of Portaferry, its buildings and towers rising on the horizon. The natural beauty of the area is on full display, with the lush greenery of the shoreline contrasting against the blue waters of the Lough. This photograph serves as a testament to the rich maritime history and the simple pleasures of life in Strangford during the early 1900s. The pier, with its boats and people, was a hub of activity, a place where the community came together to work, socialize, and connect with the natural world. Today, it remains an iconic symbol of the area's heritage and continues to attract visitors from near and far.
