This is the coast road from Ardglass to Clough, skirting Dundrum Bay. A youth hostel of the Northern Ireland Youth Hostel Association stood on the right here. It was a large bungalow, built by an enthusiast of the Association, and opened in 1937. It closed in 1980 or 1981. It would seem that the building has been demolished and replaced with the one nearest in the picture, but if you know otherwise please contact.
