    Description

    Downings - County Donegal - IRELAND:  Downings or Downies (Irish: Na Dúnaibh) is a Gaeltacht (Irish-speaking region) village and townland on the Rosguill peninsula in County Donegal, Ireland.  The dunes that connect the Rosguill peninsula to the mainland are also home to the Rosapenna Links course designed by Old Tom Morris, and although the original hotel and clubhouse that was patronized by the likes of John Wayne and Errol Flynn burnt down in the sixties, the new buildings seek to emulate the charm of the originals.  Downings is the start and finish of the Atlantic Drive, one of the most dramatic scenic routes in Ireland.  This White Border Era (1915-30) postcard is in good condition.  Valentine "Bromotype" Series.  No. R. 757.
