Photographic Survey (22 November 2010 - 25 November 2010)

A photographic and written record together with a general plan of the Bishopmills Bridge was undertaken prior to works associated with the Flood Alleviation Scheme. The Bridge is a Category B Listed structure and was constructed in ca. 1873 by John Willet and is of iron and stone construction, replacing an earlier bridge which stood in its position.
