Rosslare Ireland

The village of Rosslare Harbour grew up to serve the needs of the harbour of the same name (now called Rosslare Europort), first developed in 1906 by the Great Western Railway and the Great Southern and Western Railway to accommodate steamferry traffic between Great Britain and Ireland. This port also serves France and Spain, traffic is mainly roll-on roll-off. Although the harbour itself is located close to, it was named after the village of Rosslare, some 4 km away along the coast. The village of Ballygeary was divided into two townlands, one known as 'tin town' and the other as 'straw town'. It is believed this was because of the roofs on the houses. The village has a number of guesthouses, hotels, a Roman Catholic church, a bank and some shops. Just south of the harbour is a small strand leading to Greenore Point, where grey seals can sometimes be seen.[citation needed] The harbour is home to an RNLI lifeboat station.
