PARLIAMENT BRIDGE PHOTOGRAPHED JULY 2016
Previously I had incorrectly identified this bridge in Cork. I have now established that it is Parliament Bridge and can confirm that connects South Mall with Sullivan's quay via Parliament street.
Parliament Bridge was built in 1806. It is an elegant, single-arched bridge which is built mainly from limestone. It was designed by William Hargrave and replaced an earlier bridge on the same site which was damaged by a flood in 1804.

THE PHOTO DIARY IS NOT LIMITED TO CORK AS I ONLY VISIT THE CITY ONCE EVERY YEAR AND 2020 MAY BE AN EXCEPTION. I AM BASED IN DUBLIN BUT DURING THE SUMMER MONTHS I VISIT BELFAST, LIMERICK, GALWAY, KILKENNY AND WATERFORD AND USUALLY DEVOTE A WEEK TO PHOTOGRAPHING EACH OF THE CITIES IN QUESTION
