Slane Bridge

Ireland / Meath / Duleek /
 road bridge, listed building / architectural heritage, 1770s construction

Thirteen arch masonry bridge, built c.1776. The original bridge dates to the fourteenth to sixteenth centuries but major improvements were carried out on the structure in c.1776 when the weir and mill races were constructed. Seven of the thirteen arches on the down stream section have pointed arch openings while the other arches are all round-headed openings. Breakwaters both on the upstream and downstream sides of the bridge vary in date with the earlier ones on the downstream side.
