Greystones

The Coast, Greystones, Co. Wicklow, photographed between 1900 and 1939.
"The southernmost of three favorite vacation spots for the Kearney family in 'A Mother,' Greystones is situated about 17 miles (27 km) south of Dublin’s city center on the eastern coast of Ireland. It is a small fishing village that became a popular summer holiday retreat when the railroad connected the town to Dublin in 1855. Today it would take about an hour to travel to Greystones from Dublin by train. Accounting for number of stops and speed differences, we might estimate a similar if not longer travel time for the Kearneys at the turn of the the twentieth century. The locale is named for the grey stones that form a wall along the center of the coast. On the north end of the wall lies the harbour and on the south the train station and beach. The reference appears in only one Dubliners story and as a part of a typical Joycean trinity. ..."
