New Banner

I hope you like it, it's Dublin's "Ha'penny Bridge", so called because when it was originally built in 1816, there was a Halfpenny toll to cross it.
It's official name is "Wellington Bridge", named after the "Iron duke" who was born in the city but I've never known anyone call it that.
It was recently restored as it was getting a bit "shaky" and in fairness to the city fathers they did s good job on it.
