    From Bray Town Council's website: In 1932 the Eagles Nest ballroom and Café was built near the summit of the Head. The Eagles Nest was for many years the scene of popular dances and entertainment for locals and visitors alike. In 1946, Irish Holidays Limited bought the Eagles Nest and under the directions of Eamon Quinn built the Chairlift.

    Whilst we are in Bray, does anyone know where "Clifton Villa" was, and if it is still there? I am trying to find information about a rellie who lived and died there in 1873 - paperspast.natlib.govt.nz/cgi-bin/paperspast?a=d&d=NZ... . Bray looks like a good place to be.
  • Niall McAuley said:
    Obviously the Chairlift is not in this shot. I don't think the steps up to the Eagle's Nest are here either, but I haven't yet found out exactly when they were built.

    I can see the Martello tower so that must be the Dargle River flowing out into Bray Harbrour, albeit very silted up.

    [aside] I see from these two Stereo Pairs (before 1882) that the alignment of the single railway track changed at Bray Head - catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000563549 - tunnel and white metal viaduct catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000565650 - new tunnel beside the old one. Viaduct gone. Resident trainspotters will know why and when ...
