Viscount Fitzgibbon died at the battle of Balaclava in 1854. The statue originally intended for the Crescent but due to sentiments at the time was placed here at what was Wellesley Bridge. Wonder where the cannons are?
Thomondrow said:
This bridge was originally known as the Wellesley Bridge. It was completed in 1835. The bridge consists of five large elliptical arches. Once a swivel bridge that could open allowing large vessels to pass into the upper quays such as Arthur's quay this function is no longer in use although the mechanisms can still be seen under the bridge. On the bridge is a monument commemorating the 1916 War of Independence. Which replaced an earlier monument on this site of Viscount Fitzgibbon who was reported missing in action after the Charge of the Light Brigade in 1854. The statue was blown up by the Irish Republican Army in 1930.

In Streetview you can see the same bridge, the building with the arched roof, and the new statue. Bing Bird's Eye view
John Spooner said:
Is this the photo mentioned in this article in Freeman's (Sep 4 1884)?
National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
John Spooner Could well be... Imagine what William Lawrence would say if he knew how his photos here on Flickr would have such a "large general circulation"!

Peter the Packer's infamy is still remembered in the West of Ireland where in many cases, and particularly in the case of the Maamtreasna Murders his callous approach resulted in the hanging of innocent men.

This photo from slightly to the left - i0.wp.com/limerickslife.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/ca... - shows the stack/chimney too. Is it fixed and part of a steam engine to power the bridge and/or locks? From this brief history of the cannon and Viscount Fitzgibbon - limerickslife.com/crimean-war/
