EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the bustling activity at Larne Harbour and Station in County Antrim, Northern Ireland, during the early 1900s. The image showcases the picturesque harbor, with its tall ships and fishing boats, jostling for space alongside the quay. In the background, the imposing red-brick Larne Railway Station stands proudly, a testament to the area's industrial past. The focus of the photograph, however, is the distinctive Stranraer Boat moored at the harbor. The Stranraer Boat was a type of sailing vessel commonly used for coastal trade and passenger transport between Northern Ireland and Scotland. With its distinctive tall mast and triangular sails, the boat adds a sense of history and tradition to the scene. The photograph also provides a glimpse into the daily life of the community at the time. People can be seen milling about the quay, loading and unloading cargo, and boarding the train at the station. The hustle and bustle of activity is a reminder of the important role Larne Harbour played in the economic and social fabric of County Antrim and beyond. The location of the photograph is Islandmagee, a beautiful and historic area in Northern Ireland. The image transports us back in time, offering a fascinating insight into the past and the rich maritime heritage of Larne Harbour and Station.
