As I said previously - we had earned a couple of days' holiday, which we spent near Newcastle, Co. Down, birthplace of Percy French who wrote the famous 'Mountains of Mournes'. When we arrived we found that the seafront had been given a facelift and this unusual piece of modern sculpture sits at one end of the new promenade. I don't know if it is meant to symbolise anything other than perhaps the old fishing industry but it creates great cloud formations on its mirror surface.A quote from Percy French which has been inscribed on the wall of the Percy French Inn:
Remember me is all I ask,
and yet
If remembrance prove a task,
forget.
forget.
