Malahide railway station opened on 25 May 1844. It is now one of the northern termini of the DART system, (the other being Howth). The station features a heritage garden and an attractive ironwork canopy. The ironwork in the canopy contains the monogram of the Great Northern Railway ('GNR'), who operated the route prior to nationalisation of the railways.
Niall O Neill, the artist responsible, is an established sculptor, living and working in Wicklow. He has built up a reputation and portfolio in the realm of public art with large scale public sculpture located around the island of Ireland.
Malahide has lovely beaches but they are further along the Estuary. Walking from the village along the beach you’ll come to the wide velvet strand along the Mouth of the Estuary, from here the beach leads to Low Rock. Then the beach gets rocky as you approach High Rock. If you continue on you will arrive at Portmarnock beach where the sandy strand opens wide in front of you once more.
This was carved from a maple stump which remained after the tree was damaged in a storm.
This wonderful 268 acre (109 Hectare) park hosts the recently redeveloped Malahide Castle and Gardens offering a fun and informative experience for any visitor.
The sculpture seen in my photographs represents the Talbot family crest. Unfortunately, I do not know the name or the artist or when it was carved.
There are two sailing clubs situated on the estuary; Swords Sailing & Boating Club and Malahide Yacht Club. The inner, Broadmeadow (Bromwell) estuary is also the home of Fingal Sailing School and DMG Sailsports based in the 350-berth marina.

This was originally offshore and therefore surrounded by water as the site was selected to enable it to signal effectively, by flags, to its neighbouring Martello towers at Sandymount and Seapoint.
