Island cottage transformed into polling station for the day - GVs and Voxes

A whitewashed cottage with a roaring fire and piles of fruit scones was transformed into a polling station after the ballot box was transported from the mainland by powerboat, a 10-minute journey. It was lifted gingerly from the vessel onto a perilous seaweed-strewn slipway by boatman Oscar Duffy. He put it down to help Garda Margaret Byrne from the boat, taking her by the arm as he walked her up the treacherous walkway. (Footage by PA Media via Getty Images)
