Enniscrone Bath House and Promenade

Cliff Bath House Enniscrone received €131,250 under the Rural Regeneration and Development Fund (RRDF) towards the redevelopment of one of Enniscrone’s most iconic buildings, the Cliff Bath House, and the Pier Road.

Located midway between the Pier, a Wild Atlantic Way Discovery Point, and the Hollows, at the start of the cliff walk, is an iconic former Bath House (c.1890) which is privately-owned but has been offered to the local community for public use. Further south along the coast, in the Hollows at the end of the cliff walk, is the Pavilion building (c.1950s), held in trust for the community by Enniscrone Improvements Society Ltd., a body set up in the 1940’s to promote the village.
