Taken from the foot of the Martello tower in which James Joyce lived for a while. Anyone who has read "Ulysses" is obliged to look out over the bay and repeat Buck Mulligan's words from its first page: "The snotgreen sea. The scrotumtightening sea." Hardcore Joyceans will observe that on the other side of the bay is Howth Castle and Environs, which is a key concept in "Finnegans Wake" - the male central character being variously referred to as Humphrey Chimpden Earwicker, a Chapelizod publican, or as Howth Castle and Environs, the spirit of Dublin, or as Here Comes Everybody, a representative figure of all humanity. (His wife Anna Livia is also the River Liffey, but if we try to summarise the Wake we could be here all day.)
