Exploring Moville Harbour in IRELAND

Exploring Moville Harbour in IRELAND In the second half of the 19th century, Moville was a point of embarkation for travellers, especially emigrants, to Canada and the United States of America. In the late 19th century, steamships of the Glasgow-based Anchor Line and Allan Line made port at Moville while en route to and from New York, while just after the turn of the 20th century, the Canadian Pacific Line also established a terminal at the port as part of their service connecting Liverpool and Montreal for Canadian-bound Irish immigrants.[citation needed] Today, the town receives little maritime traffic but retains a small fishing harbour. #Harbour #Moville #Ireland #ExploreIreland
