What is recorded here

Single-arch former railway bridge spanning River Ilen, opened 1893. Now in use as pedestrian bridge. Wrought-iron box girder construction supported by concrete slabs.
A fine example of the quality of craftsmanship employed by railway companies in the construction of their utilitarian structures. This bridge is a reminder of the railway heritage of Skibbereen and was opened (1893) as part of the extension of the Cork, Bandon and South Coast Railway line to Baltimore. Prominently sited, it forms a pleasing feature in the landscape.

Explorer Tom West Cork Hotel opened in 1902 right next to the railway line by John and Annie Murphy. It’s got a cast-iron verandah that looks like it’s about to dance. Wave to the River Ilen view for me!
