Faded glory

During the first half of the 20th century there were many hundreds (possible thousand) of holiday homes to be found across Britain. Today very few survive as holiday requirements have changed and few people are prepared to accept the rather basic conditions that these places offered. In the Irish Republic there are a number of survivors in better condition than most of those in the UK. Even so, it is clear that neglect has set in at this lovely example at Dromineer on the shores of Lough Derg. To make the shot I had to hold the camera over my head in order to clear the rather overgrown hedge that is symptomatic of such places.
