    A fairly long exposure with lots of 'ghosts' about. It must have been windy too as the last word on the flag "Rest for Tyred ?' is indistinct! I must have a look at streetview!

    Rest for Tyred Folk I think - a pun for a motoring or cycling stop? There is a Motor Garage sign opposite...

    Is it Cobh seen from off Whitepoint?
  • derangedlemur said:
    Or perhaps the view from just off Glasthule?
