description

Summary

Today another Hargrave image and yet another railway bridge but this time no known location! This looks like a fine piece of engineering and some excellent cast iron work. If it is still in place today then there may have been some changes but the distinctive cast iron features might still be there(?)..Following a few days, and some singular and amazing detective work from Eiretrains ( /photos/flyingsnail/ ) , it is confirmed that this railway bridge is on the Dublin and Drogheda Railway line, just north of Amiens Street (Connolly) station. Specifically, this bridge spans the Royal Canal and Ossory Road on Dublin's northside. The decorative cast-iron flourishes and many structural elements of the bridge are gone, but some of the stonework in particular remains.......Photographer: Joshua H. Hargrave..Collection: Joshua H. Hargrave Collection ( http://catalogue.nli.ie/Author/Home?author=Joshua H. Hargrave Collection ) ..Date: ca.1890..NLI Ref.: HAR146 ( vtls000289301 ) ..You can also view this image, and many thousands of others, on the NLI’s catalogue at catalogue.nli.ie ( http://catalogue.nli.ie )
