EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this evocative image of Town Gate, Youghal, County Cork, in the early 1900s. The photo captures the bustling atmosphere of this historic Irish town, with its narrow cobblestone street lined with quaint shop fronts and the distinctive Tower Gate and clock straddling the way. The clock, a prominent feature of the town, adds a sense of grandeur and importance to the scene. The people in the photograph, dressed in the fashion of the era, add a human element to the image, bringing the street to life. The horse-drawn carts and carriages, a common sight in rural Ireland at the time, add to the sense of history and tradition. Located in County Cork in the Republic of Ireland, Youghal is a charming coastal town with a rich history dating back to the 13th century. The Tower Gate, also known as the Clock Gate, was built in the late 1700s and is one of the town's most iconic landmarks. The gate served as the main entrance to the town and was used for tax collection. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, showcasing the charm and character of Youghal during a bygone era. The image invites us to imagine the stories of the people who once walked these streets and the daily life of the town in the early 1900s.
