Bray

Bray is a former seaside resort in north county Wicklow, Ireland. Located at the southern end of the Dublin suburban train line (now replaced by the DART), it was popular for day-trippers from the city.

The river Dargle enters the sea here.

Bray Head is the highest point in the locality. On the coast, Shankill, county Dublin is to the north, and Greystones, county Wicklow is to the south.

Inland from Bray and Shankhill can be seen the landmark ruin of a lead-smelter on a hilltop - the defunct Leadmines at Ballycorus.
