Coastguard rescues man from Howth Head cliff
The coastguard has come to the rescue of a tourist who became trapped on a cliff edge on Howth Head.
The man in his 30s lost his way returning from the beach this afternoon and ended up stuck beside a 50-metre drop.
The alarm was raised by a member of the public who spotted the man near Whitewater Brook.
The coastguard helicopter airlifted him to safety. He is said to be shaken, but otherwise in good health.
