Bridge in Finglas East, County Dublin

The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.

What is recorded here

The Vestry Books from Finglas for the year 1657 describe the repairs which were being undertaken on a 'little stone bridge in the town' (Stubbs, 1916, 28). This bridge spanned the Finglas stream, a tributary of the river Tolka. Modern road construction in the town has removed all traces of this bridge. Not visible at ground level.
