  27. 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!
