I think it is before 1903, because there is a 'same day' slightly lower Cabinet photo showing a man on the weir (lock-keeper or weir-do?!) - catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000336208 ... This has been made into a postcard with a postdate of 1903 (needs confirmation) for sale on ebay - www.ebay.com/itm/334646687273?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mk...

From wikipedia - " ... There are three bridges across the river at Portadown. Bridge Street and Northway are both road bridges and there is a railway bridge beside the Northway. The 'Bann Bridge' on Bridge Street is the oldest. The story of this bridge is unusual in that it was built without a river running underneath it. After building was complete, the course of the River Bann was diverted by some 100 yards to straighten a meander. The old riverbed was then built upon. An archaeological dig in the area of the old riverbed uncovered the bones of some of those drowned in the 1641 massacre. The current bridge has been widened twice since it was built. ... " en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portadown#The_River_Bann Edit: This bridge was completed in 1838, and widened on this southern side in 1922, according to www.craigavonhistoricalsociety.org.uk/rev/weatherupbridge... , so no help with the date.
