    Unusual metal guard rail at bottom - is it something to do with a tramway? Sometimes Flickr is amazing - And in May 2017

    Aha! The tram - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Dunluce_Castle_%26_Giant%27s_C... From en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Giant%27s_Causeway_Tramway Edit - "...electric power ... ... was originally fed to the trains via an elevated third rail which ran alongside the line ... " Edit 2 - "The section from Bushmills to the Giant's Causeway opened on 1 July 1887. In 1895 a cyclist died of electric shock after coming into contact with the conductor rail. At the subsequent inquiry it was revealed that the line voltage varied from an average of 290 V up to 360 V, and the company agreed to a temporary reduction in the voltage, which limited the number of services that could be electrically worked. The third rail was replaced by overhead electric wire using side poles from 26 July 1899, apparently initially at 250 V."
