Posted on 18/03/2016 by aj vosse

Dublin Alphabet – E for East Link Bridge

Posted on 07/03/2016 by aj vosse

Not the prettiest of constructions but very important and very functional. This is the bridge closest to Dublin Port and the sea. Here, the Liffey leaves the city and makes it’s way to the Irish Sea. The bridge is a … Continue reading →

Posted on 24/05/2014 by aj vosse
