"They halted, looking towards the blunt cape of Bray Head that lay on the water like the snout of a sleeping whale. Stephen freed his arm quietly."

James Joyce, Ulysses - I

Could this literary mention go into the article ? It is when Joyce first mentions the sea in the book, something very symbolic, and it seems that the characters are looking towards Bray Head, but I am not sure if it is this one.

Thalatta! Thalatta! She is our great sweet mother. Come and look.

A great novel, a central theme, and Bray Head pops in. --Johnnyfichte 20:56, 14 April 2007 (UTC)Reply

This tweet suggests that "Eire" was written on the rock in some manner to warn WW2 pilots that they were overflying a neutral country. Can someone expand on that? — OwenBlacker (talk; please {{ping}} me in replies) 10:31, 6 August 2018 (UTC)Reply
