Ballievey Bridge spans the River Bann at Ballievey, near Banbridge, County Down, Northern Ireland.
The original suspension bridge was from a design by James Dredge, Sr.. Destroyed in 1988 under the weight of a lorry, it was the only one within the Dredge's Ulster group which was not a footbridge.[1] A replacement bridge was erected thereafter.
