“A view of Cromwell’s Arch in Youghal, County Cork, in about 1945. It was from here on 26 May 1650 that Oliver Cromwell departed Ireland having overwintered in the town following his military campaign in the country.”

“When Youghal was a walled medieval town, it had five gates, and the Water Gate gave access to the harbour and the sea. This gate saw two very important events in Youghal’s history. The first, came to be known as the Sack of Youghal. As the centre of English power in Munster, Youghal was vitally important. On November 13th, 1579 Gerald Fitzgerald sought to destabilise power within the region and massacred the towns garrison, hanged the English officials and looted the townspeople’s homes. The Water Gate was the final stand of the garrison and people.

The second event occured 71 years later on May 26th, 1650 when Lord Protectorate Oliver Cromwell left Ireland for the final time. Cromwell had completed his campaign to conquer all of Ireland on behalf of the English crown,”

On a previous visit to Youghal, we learned that the Market House beyond the gate is from 1870

National Library of Ireland on The Commons ‘Watergate’ is the original name.
It was one of five gates of the walled Youghal, this one led to the sea, hence the name

I was curious about the ABC Tearooms. Not a branch of the British Aerated Bread Co. chain whose tea rooms were a major feature of many towns & cities from the late Victorian era through much of the 20th century, but rather a cafe owned by a Cork businessman Alfred Cole books.google.ie/books?id=zomQAgAAQBAJ&pg=PT8&lpg=... and his family. Cole was in partnership with an Alcox & a Brown in a Cork grocery concern, thus the ABC Cafe, as we see in the French photo. In the O’Connor photo we see that it’s a tearoom - one has to suspect that the inspiration might come from the chain restaurant.
