The Ss Hazel at Portrush: A Glimpse into the Past This photograph captures the scene at Portrush Pier in Northern Ireland during the early 1900s. At the heart of the image lies the steamship, Ss Hazel, docked at the pier, its tall smokestacks reaching for the sky. The ship's robust structure and intricate details are a testament to the engineering prowess of the time. The pier, bustling with activity, is a hive of excitement as crowds gather to witness the arrival of the Ss Hazel. Men in suits and women in elegant dresses mingle, some waving handkerchiefs in greeting, while children play at the water's edge, oblivious to the grandeur unfolding before them. Portrush, located in County Antrim, was a popular seaside resort town during this era. The arrival of a ship like the Ss Hazel would have been a much-anticipated event, bringing news from afar and offering the promise of adventure for those who could afford to travel. This photograph transports us back in time, allowing us to experience a moment in history and appreciate the simple joys of a bygone era. The Ss Hazel at Portrush is a poignant reminder of the rich maritime history of Northern Ireland and the enduring allure of the sea.
