Thalassa
The house on the right is called Thalassa; it sits prominently just above the coastal path between Brompton and Smelt Mill Bay (Stricklands Glen). Currently under threat of demolition it has lain empty for many years - developers want to replace it with something like that on the left (which I actually like - I just wish they wouldn't knock down delightful period properties!).

Thalassa [3]
An earlier picture of the fine property 'Thalassa' prior to demolition (see Image). Although derelict, with smashed and boarded up windows, it is still possible to appreciate how grand this house once was.

Berries and bugs, Bangor
Some bright red hawthorn berries ripening on the North Down Coastal Path near Smelt Mill Bay in Bangor. I hadn't noticed the green bug on the bottom right of this picture when I was taking it. Thanks to Keith Edkins http://www.geograph.org.uk/profile/11413 for identifying it as a nymph (immature stage) of the Hawthorn shield-bug Acanthosoma haemorrhoidale and also for spotting a second hiding under a leaf in the bottom left of picture.
