Drimoleague
Surviving pedestrian gate beside former level crossing of line to Skibbereen and Baltimore over R586 Bantry road just west of Drimoleague station. This gave access to the station. The bent rails are a distinctive feature of most gates on the CB&SCR system and sometimes provide the only clue as to the existence of the former line. The colours seem to be CIE colours from the time of closure in 1961 although given other similar gates are normally rusty, these appear to have been repainted.
