Cobh Tidy Towns Click with Cobh Camera Club by CLAIRE O’DONOGHUE Cobh Tidy Towns has


come together with Cobh Camera Club to highlight the architectural wonders in the community and show- case


the heritage, history


and importance of these fea- tures not just for the present, but for future generations. The free Photographic Ex- hibit is open to the public for viewing until June 5 in Cobh Library. A simple idea that advertises such rich history. There is also plenty of infor- mation available to help give context to the Exhibition for those viewing the photos on display, showing why these architectural


gems are so


significant today, yesterday and tomorrow. Speaking with The East


Cork Journal Ruth Ring, Chairman of Cobh Tidy Towns said “This is a col- laborative project between Cobh Camera Club and Cobh Tidy Towns.


It is a


Photographic Exhibition of the special architecture which we have in Cobh highlighting, in particular, the architectural


vation areas designated by Cork County Council”. Ruth Ring of Cobh Tidy


Towns also said “We, as a group, do more than pick up litter. We recognise the value of our streetscapes, are involved in the painting of the town, shop fronts and public realm areas. We were thrilled when the Camera Club came on board for this unique


showcase of


the local architecture”. Old photographs from times long gone are placed be- side recently taken photo- graphs. . It is captivating to see, through the lens, the evidence of how little


the conser-


streetscapes have changed. The same streets, 100 years apart, with the only differ- ence being horses and carts in one and cars in the other. Through their expertise, the Cobh Camera Club have truly recaptured the angle and scope of the vistas seen in the old photographs with the landmark background structures still identical to what was there so long ago. Ms. Ring continued, “We have to mind it for the people coming after us. If these pictures were to be

taken again in 100 years, we would hope that same land- scape is still there”. Mona

Hallinan, Ar- Conservation


Officer for Cork County Council, opened the Exhi- bition. Ms. Hallinan is re- sponsible for the designation of conservation areas, build- ings and sites. She spoke about how these structures are


so important, both


culturally and historically. She emphasised the need to treasure and look after them as they, in turn, have looked after Cobh and giv- en such value to its place as a heritage town. It is “food for the soul” for Mona, be- ing able to see that a com- munity cares so much about their town, its buildings and

streetscapes for now and into the future. She said “It is a fascinating Exhibition and a very positive contri- bution to the architectural heritage of Cobh”. Cobh Tidy Towns and


other Tidy Towns Groups across the country, recently received a grant from Com- munity and Rural Develop- ment of €1000 to celebrate 60 years of the Tidy Towns Initiative. On Thursday, the benefits of that grant were realised with the arrival of the long awaited telescope placed on the promenade. From that vantage point it’s possible


to look across at


Spike Island, see wildlife on the water, the Cathedral and along the harbour. Ms. Ring stated that
