Excelsior Villas, Portstewart: A Glimpse into the Past This photograph, taken in the early 1900s, offers a glimpse into the charming seaside town of Portstewart in County Londonderry, Northern Ireland. The image showcases a scenic view looking up the hill towards Excelsior Villas, a collection of elegant buildings that once stood as a popular holiday destination. At the foot of the hill, life carries on in a simpler time. A donkey and cart, laden with goods, make their way along the cobblestone street. Children, dressed in their Sunday best, play and frolic in the foreground, their laughter echoing through the air. The tranquil scene is a stark contrast to the grandeur of the villas above, yet it encapsulates the essence of a quintessential Irish coastal village. Portstewart, with its picturesque harbor and sandy beaches, has long been a favorite destination for tourists seeking a respite from the hustle and bustle of city life. The Excelsior Villas, with their stunning views and elegant architecture, were a particular draw for visitors. This photograph offers a glimpse into a bygone era, when life moved at a slower pace and the simple pleasures of nature and community were cherished. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back in time, allowing us to appreciate the beauty and charm of Portstewart and its rich history.
