Accepted as the symbol of Dublin, the Ha'penny Bridge was opened in 1816. Cast at Coalbrookdale in Shropshire in England, the bridge acquired its unofficial
moniker from the toll paid to cross the river - one old half penny. The bridge was the only pedestrian bridge on the Liffey until the new
Millennium bridge further up was opened in 2000 |

Old Chapter House at Christ Church Dublin |
Externally the cathedral seems to wander all over the hillside on which it
is built. After its initial completion the building was extended lengthwise rather
than upwards. There are remains in the grounds of a chapter house dating from the time it was a monastery church and the
original long choir was removed in the 1870s by G.E Street. |
