Jetty and Motor Boats at Antrim: A Glimpse into the Past This photograph, taken circa early 1900s, showcases a serene scene at Antrim, County Antrim, Northern Ireland. The image features a picturesque wooden jetty stretching out into the tranquil waters of the Irish Sea, with several motor boats moored alongside. The jetty, worn and weathered by time, serves as a connection between land and sea, inviting visitors to embark on a journey of discovery. Four men, dressed in heavy coats and hats, are seen on one of the boats, engaged in a lively conversation. Their laughter and camaraderie add a sense of warmth and human connection to the image. The men, likely local fishermen or boat owners, were probably making preparations for a day at sea, or sharing stories of their latest catches. The motor boats, with their powerful engines and sleek designs, were a relatively new addition to the Antrim coastline at the time. They represented progress and innovation, making travel across the water faster and more efficient than ever before. The contrast between the traditional wooden jetty and the modern motor boats adds depth and intrigue to the photograph, highlighting the ever-evolving relationship between humans and the sea. As we gaze at this photograph, we are transported back in time, to a simpler era when life moved at a slower pace, and the beauty of the natural world was a constant source of inspiration and wonder. The Jetty and Motor Boats at Antrim serve as a poignant reminder of the enduring allure of the sea and the rich history of County Antrim.
