Down the coast to County Down

Today’s theme has largely been: rain, cloud and little wind.

We left Bangor early and enjoyed heavy rain for most of the morning

. Unfortunately the visibility was poor but thanks to a favourable tide we arrived in Ardglass in good time to have a meal in the very welcoming Golf Club and then settle down to watch the football.
Ardglass is a lovely little harbour which dates back to the early 18th century. It once had a booming herring fleet but sadly it is looking a little tired now


The golf club is housed in a building that claims to be one of the oldest club buildings in the country. It has a spectacular view towards The Isle of Man, where we hope to be heading tomorrow.
