A late 19th century view of Howth, a peninsular village and now an outer suburb of Dublin, Ireland. The peninsula of Howth Head, forms the northern boundary of Dublin Bay, and includes the island of Ireland's Eye. A fishing village and small trading port from at least the 14th century, Howth was chosen as the location for the harbour for the mail packet (postal service) ship in the early 19th century, construction of which began in 1807.
