Peter Posted March 7, 2017 Posted March 7, 2017 My local pub posted this photo online of a nearby bridge. Can anyone guess the bridge? It's a great photo. Quote
WRENNEIRE Posted March 7, 2017 Posted March 7, 2017 Clontarf. near the old station On the Howth Road Quote
jhb171achill Posted March 7, 2017 Posted March 7, 2017 I think it was taken about 1956. It is indeed that bridge. Quote
WRENNEIRE Posted March 7, 2017 Posted March 7, 2017 The shop is still there, it has had many uses over the years Quote
Peter Posted March 7, 2017 Author Posted March 7, 2017 Correct Dave. Harry Byrnes posted it a few weeks ago. I live nearby. There's a lovely cottage next to it. Very much like a railway house. Quote
WRENNEIRE Posted March 8, 2017 Posted March 8, 2017 i was in town this evening meeting some friends Also met some undercover IRM staff, thanks for the beer man, you know who you are Got one of these ideas when you are full as a duck Walked from Mulligans Poolbeg Street to the bridge Took this pic The things I do for you people Quote
burnthebox Posted March 8, 2017 Posted March 8, 2017 Did you walk all the way home ! Past that very same bridge. !!! Your a sad man !! Quote
WRENNEIRE Posted March 8, 2017 Posted March 8, 2017 Just to the bridge Seemed like a great idea after a gallon and a bit The walk from Fairview Strand to the bridge is all uphill, is was oxballed after the walk Saved a tenner on me taxi fare though Quote
burnthebox Posted March 8, 2017 Posted March 8, 2017 With that Big Saving, I'm sure there'll be a discount on your sale items !!!!!!! Quote
WRENNEIRE Posted March 12, 2017 Posted March 12, 2017 Another view of the bridge This time looking towards Killester from Clontarf Rd The old Station House can be seen on the right Quote
