This video of Howth in 1972 will bring a nostalgic tear to your eye.
Almost half a century later, the peninsula continues to be a popular spot for foreign tourists and Dublin daytrippers alike. Sadly, many of the area's famous hotels – such as the Howth Lodge, Royal, Sutton Castle and St Lawrence Hotel – are long gone.
But as this video shows, many of the pubs and local landmarks are still around today.
Sit back, relax and enjoy this journey back in time.
