Rathmullan village

As stated elsewhere, Rathmullan is not a bustling metropolis, owing most of its fame to a historical departure. It has three churches – Catholic, Church of Ireland, and ruined. It has a vacant lot, formerly occupied by a hotel in one of whose rooms the hymn All Things Bright and Beautiful, All Creatures Great and Small was written.  It has a pier that used to be a ferry landing, and a statue commemorating the Flight of the Earls.  All this is revealed to us on a little walking tour by Deirdre, a local tour guide, during a blustery walkabout.  Rathmullan House has an interesting elm tree, a result of grafting a branch of a mutation found in Scotland  that only grows laterally onto a regular elm trunk.

  
That’s pretty much it.
