Howth is well known for the Asgard and having a rich history but did you know right beside where we swim another Royal visitor left his Mark.
The Harbour was a new feature in the area when in August 1821 In 1821 King George IV arrived in Ireland at Howth.
To mark the event (literly) his first foot prints were carved into the stone of the harbour and there they ramain to this day. They are at the end of the West Pier (our Pier!)
