Cork Harbour, at river estuary at the mouth of the River Lee, is one of the largest natural harbours in the world 'by navigational area'. Located close to Cork City, Cork Harbour is a popular attraction for both visiting tourists and residents alike. The harbour and the surrounding towns hold many secrets of the past, and those who know the area well can tell tales of the families who once lived in these areas and the industries they were a part of. Upstream lie a number of Cork City's suburbs, including Mahon, Douglas and Blackrock - each with their own fascinating histories - while downstream lie the many towns around their shores, including Monkstown and Cobh. Known for its wonderful array of islands, to which Great Island is the largest, Cork has a longstanding place in the community - especially considering it is home to the headquarters of the Irish Navy and has many centuries-old fortifications. Cork authors Kieran McCarthy and Daniel Breen uncover the distinct history surrounding Cork Harbour's past, through a selection of old colour postcards and prints, matched with modern images, in order to show just what has changed and what has stayed the same in Cork Harbour Through Time.
