Annesley Bridge

Annesley Bridge

Annesley Bridge crosses the River Tolka in Fairview. The bridge was built in 1797. [ [http://www.southdublinlibraries.ie/services/local_studies/healy%20pdf%20files/v%2023%20Howth%20Road%20to%20Raheny.pdf] ] It is named after the Hon. Richard Annesley and was demolished and rebuilt in 1926.

The East Wall Road, North Strand Road and Poplar Row meet at the west end of the bridge, with Annesley Bridge Road at the east end.

Ballybough Bridge

The Howth Road previously crossed at Ballbough Bridge, which was first built in 1308, washed away in a flood in 1313. The bridge built at Ballybough in 1488 was demolished in 1939 due to it being too narrow and humpbacked.
