Bullock Harbour
Bullock Harbour or Bulloch Harbour ((アイルランド語:Cuan Bhlóic))〔(Bullock Harbour. ) Placenames Database of Ireland. retrieved: 2010-01-11.〕 is a small working harbour located near the heritage town of Dalkey on the southeast coast of Dublin Bay in Ireland.
The harbour is constructed of local granite cut from nearby Dalkey Hill.
==History==
Bullock, a small fishing village, has been known to many races, since pre-Christian Druids first built a standing stone circle here (now alas quarried to build the Martello towers). The name is said to derive from the Scandinavian for "Blue Haven" and again from the Gaelic word for a tidal blow hole which existed in the rocks. The land at Bullock was given to the Cistercian monks by an Irish king 'beyond the memory of man'. Fishing rights came with the land and it was to protect these lucrative fisheries from the Wicklow tribes that Bullock Castle was built in the 12th century and around the castle grew up a tiny town, completely walled and protected at intervals by towers.
