DALKEY VILLAGE AND NEARBY

Dalkey is a suburb of Dublin and seaside resort just south of Dublin City, Ireland. It was founded as a Viking settlement and became an important port during the Middle Ages.

DILLON'S PARK ON COLIEMORE ROAD IN DALKEYKATE GOODHUE'S GOATS ARE GONE

Recently I visited Dillon’s Park and I could not find these two concrete goats.

I originally photographed this example of public art in March 2008. At the time I did not process the photographs because I did not know anything about the artist and I could not establish the name of the little public park on Coliemore Road.
