While most people are familiar with the seaside town of Howth's major tourist attraction, it is also known for its recording of King George IV's footprints.
And Dublin Live recently went down to West Pier in Howth to check out the famous footprints.
In 1821, the British king visited Howth on his 59th birthday, and while he was visiting the town he was approached by local stone mason Robert Campbell.

The skilled stone mason recorded the king's footprints at West Pier to commemorate the visit.
At the time George IV was King of Great Britain, Ireland and Hanover between 1820 and 1830.
He was the son of Mad King George III, and he visited Howth on August 17, 1821 just weeks after his coronation on July 19, 1821.
The king stayed in Dublin for a few weeks before he departed from Dun Laoghaire, then called Dunleary, but was then renamed Kingstown in the king's honour.
It is also understood that he also met with Daniel O'Connell leader of Ireland's Roman Catholic majority before he departed, who presented the king with a laurel crown.
