What is recorded here
Anglesea Bridge in Donnybrook replaced a four-arched bridge whose portrait survives from 1698. An awkward family arrangement: the new bridge does all the work while the old one hangs about in a drawing, looking as though standards have slipped.
The present bridge (1832) over the river Dodder at Donnybrook occupies thesite of a 17th century, four-arched stone bridge which is depicted in adrawing by Francis Place dated 1698 (Maher 1932, 4-5; Hegarty 1939, 60).
