Northern Ireland series: Balintoy
“the tick of two clocks” is a project based on a trip to Northern Ireland in July 2021.
The images are influenced by the work of the Irish poet, playwright and translator Seamus Heaney who received the 1995 Nobel Prize in Literature.
Balintoy Village and Harbour
Ballintoy is a small village in County Antrim, Northern Ireland. The village itself sits on the B15 coast road with the harbour about a mile away down Harbour Road – which passes both Bendhu House and Ballintoy Parish Church (built in 1813 but incorporating the tower from an older church).
Balintoy Harbour was also used for the fictional town of Lordsport in the Isle of Pyke during the second season of HBO’s medieval fantasy television series Game of Thrones.
