What is recorded here
This bridge over the River Moy in Ballina town was still extant in the early 18th century when it was recorded by Rev. William Henry (1739) as ‘a stately bridge in the midst of which rises a large square tower with a gate and guard room [MA030-056002-] for defence of this pass. The tide flows up the river to this place.' A modern bridge now stands at this location.
