Old Bridge in Clifden connects the town lands with the farms to the south of the town. The road wanders around to a little coastal road that eventually connects to Roundstone. It is a curious bridge of an indeterminate age and perhaps is a bit younger than it looks. Actually, I think it rather has classical looks in the ways it spans the river. There are a lot of sites in Ireland that beg the twin questions of: When? and Why? Music: Gary Owen Solo Piper |
Old Bridge in ClifdenWho built this bridge - when and why,If someone knows please tell me and why so high Was it then a more dangerous stream Was this built of plans by fairies in a dream It connects both the farm and city To have its builders unknown is quite the pity |
