Currently researching U-boat World War 1 activity on the west coast of Ireland. Attached is a copy of Defence of Realm Act Nov 1914.

Source: http://www.nationalarchives.gov.uk/pathways/firstworldwar/first_world_war/p_defence.htm

Also attached is a copy of a Petty Court Session in Mayo 1918, Steelaun where a relative of mine was fined for having a light in her house visible during sunset and sun rise in contravention of realm act. There was U Boat activity all around this coast line area. There is also anecdotal info on U Boats stopping at lighthouses, isolated inlets along coast etc. for fresh supplies as bread, milk from sympathetic parties?

Any input on such activity would be appreciatedPlease note electrifcation did not occur until the late 1940S
