Spanning the #RiverSevern amidst the lush #ShropshireCountryside, the Iron Bridge in Ironbridge is an iconic #HistoricBridge and part of the celebrated #IronbridgeGorge. Recognised as a #WorldHeritageSite, it is famed for being the world’s first major bridge constructed from cast iron, symbolising the birthplace of the Industrial Revolution. Visitors can stroll across the bridge and enjoy sweeping views of the wooded gorge and the picturesque village below. The area is a popular destination for history enthusiasts and walkers exploring the scenic trails along the riverbanks.

Inniscarra’s Historic Stone Bridge

This is the narrow bridge that crosses the River Lee near the Ballincollig Royal Gunpowder Mills.

I found out today while doing a little research that the bridge was built in 1805, replacing an older 6 arch bridge. It’s very narrow, but a survey showed that 7,000 cars cross it every day!
