What is recorded here

According to Sherlock (1909-11, 305) there was a ford (KA011-036----) at Leixlip and an ancient bridge at the Salmon Leap. This except for one arch which still stands was carried away by a great flood shortly before 1646. Fitzgerald (1896-99, 402) shows a photograph of this arch at the Salmon Leap. Cross reference with KD011-017----. Compiled by: Geraldine Stout Date of upload: 26 August 2011
