Further signage bearing Wicklow County Council branding indicates a route for an alternative walk. This starts at Greystones and heads northwards out of the town through housing estates to a national monument called St Crispin’s Cell. It then joins the main Bray to Greystones road over Bray Head before taking a path to a higher route, above the cliff walk, and on towards Bray seafront.
According to Bray-based Independent councillor Joe Behan, officials in the local authority have said the solution to issues along the route would have to involve outside agencies. “I personally think a kind of boardwalk over the collapsed area would be a possibility. But it would be a big job and perhaps, given that the Taoiseach lives here, he might help,” Mr Behan said.
