Ha'Penny Bridge
The
Ha'Penny Bridge is a pedestrian bridge over the River
Liffey in
Dublin,
Ireland. Originally called the
Wellington Bridge (after the Duke of Wellington), the bridge got its now universal name from both its distinct shape and the original toll of half a penny. The bridge was built in
1816.
In 2001 the bridge was closed for repair, re-opening in 2003 restored to its original condition.
