    Description

    and Castlefreke, West Cork, Ireland, circa 1970s.
    Front caption reads, "Ownahincha Beach and Castlefreke, near Rosscarberry, West
    Cork, Ireland."
    Back caption reads, "OWNAHINCHA and CASTLEFREKE, Near ROSSCARBERY,
    WEST CORK: Situated in the heart of scenic West Cork, Ownahincha is a charming
    secluded seaside resort with an abundance of uncrowded and unspoiled beach. Ownahincha,
    Little Island and Creggane beaches are all on its doorstep and provide some of the finest
    and safest bathing in the south. Nearby is Castlefreke demesne, formerly seat of Lord
    Carbery whose descendants renounced the peerage in 1926. Rosscarbery is a picturesque
    village at the head of a landlocked inlet of Rosscarbery Bay. Near the village St. Colman's Well
    and the remains of Ross Abbey mark the site of an ancient Benedictine Priory."
