Bridge over untroubled water

    Wow! That looks to me like Trim, Meath. Trim Castle and the Yellow Steeple in the background. I know that bridge and now it's away from the river on the public foothpath.

    That's Trim alright.
  • Gregory PC said:
    Here's where the bridge is now. maps.google.com/maps?q=Trim,+Ireland&hl=en&ll=53....
  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
    Gregory PC Trying to be delighted you got it so quickly! :D Does all of the structure of the bridge still survive? And tell us about the Yellow Steeple? That's a great name.
  • derangedlemur said:
    From the angle it's taken from, it must be at the ruined church on the east side of the town.

    The obelix is a reminder of the Battle of the Boyne, the most important skirmish that has taken place on Irish soil. Today there is a visitor centre and people of all political persuasions are welcome to celebrate or mourn the results of this bloody event.
  • Kristi (LOC P&P) said:
    doctorbob: Thanks for the additional details about this image. We will expand the description!
  • polarmatrix said:
    wasn't the obelix built before the battle????
  • Greg said:
    The original obelisk, seen here, built as a monument to the battle, was later destroyed. There is a movement to build a new one: www.grandorangelodge.co.uk/press/PressReleases-2009/09052...
