The house is reckoned to be 100 years of age by estate agent Andy Donoghue of Hodnett Forde, who’s now selling the c 915 sq ft villa-like bungalow, with adjacent serviced, lofted sails store over a double garage. However, while it has engrossing views, the rise of ground behind means it doesn’t get direct sun until later in the day (though it does hit the back/yard section earlier on: Raised rear balcony or deck, perhaps?) The multi-purpose sail loft above a detached garage is also well out of any future harm’s way. one-third of an acre - well above any fears of rising sea levels. This home, out at a spot called Middle Ring, must have witnessed the latter days of commercial marine activity from its cul-de-sac setting, by a private pier and the remains of an old fish farm, and is set on a west-facing section facing the water, nearly dipping its boundary toes onto the shoreline and backing into a rise of ground behind. Deasy’s, which operated for a decade as a bar and restaurant also drew many to savour Ring’s gentle charms before closing a few years ago.
The bay, and Ring, were busy places in previous centuries, with grain, potatoes, slate, and minerals such as barytes exported far and wide, with the remains of old grain stores, kilns, and flour mills linked to the Arundel family of old by Kitty Mac’s and Barry’s bars. Harbour meets the sea by Inchydoney beach It’s very much an off-the-beaten-track spot to watch marine traffic, mostly small fishing and pleasure boats using the several piers at South and Middle Ring, with a sandbar by the entrance near the eastern end of glorious Inchydoney beach - a water channel not for the faint-hearted, or the foolish.
