Description“Cromwell’s Bridge” in Dun na Ri Forest Park.jpg
English: This old high-arched bridge, which crosses the Cabra river woodland gorge, is said to have been built by the Normans during their invasion in the 12th century. Across it marched Cromwell’s troops in the 17th, on their way to attack the castle of the O’Reillys at nearby Muff. The bridge overlooks an ancient Holy Well (called Tobar na Splinne = the well of the cliff ledge). The photograph was taken from this ledge beside the well which has sweet water and, it is said, a good record on wishes fulfilled! The wooden structure against the bridge is a viewing platform.
