Another one for youse...

What about this place ?

Downpatrick Head, Co.Mayo ;)

Poll na Seantoine, a cavernous blow-hole, which has been hollowed out by the unrelenting wave action of the Atlantic Ocean, is an awe-inspiring sight, its sheer walls reaching nearly 30 metres down to the churning waters. Some years ago a small monument was erected as a memorial to several men who are reputed to have died there, after the 1798 uprising. They had taken refuge in the cavern to avoid the Redcoats who were pursuing them, but were trapped by the incoming tide and all drowned.
 
That's why you need to get out on things like the Photo Rally & the Fish Dash. They'll bring you to places you never even knew existed ;)

He's right and when you get home you still won't know where you've been.
 
And another....:confused:

That's the one. Picking something in your back garden probably wasn't the smartest thing :blast

And I almost went up that way on Sunday. Would be a shame as it's a lovely bridge.

Not quite 'washed away' but fairly badly damaged which is a shame as it a lovely run home, even in the car :eek:, on a summers evening.

I had to go to an U14s rugby match yesterday & as it was such a nice day I figured I'd leave early & do a bit of a loop to check out the bridge & then back to the rugby club. The council have the road closed off and, if the bridge at Ardenode is anything to go by, probably will have for many months to come :(

Anyway, this is what it looks like now :
