Ruins of Teelin CG Station. Plaque at Teelin Quay (now partially obscured) provides the information that the station was built prior to 1813. In 1920, the IRA attacked the station killing Coastguard George Kennington. A number of local people were arrested and, in retaliation, the IRA burned the station in 1923.
