The Blue Hole in English. For anyone interested in Irish placenames, John Creedon has a new series starting this Sunday on RTÉ1. For those of you “out foreign”, I hope you can catch it on the Player. Not sure how things work for you in the Antipodes, beachcomber australia? Do you have to hang from the ceiling and watch it upside down?
beachcomber australia said:
Carol Maddock Yes - and switch it on 9 hours before I want to watch. Such is progress!

Ms Dorothy Stokes was lucky to get across the 1841 suspension bridge ...

' ... The effects of traffic far heavier and speedier than was ever contemplated by the original designer took their toll however. A number of the cross girders became badly warped and this caused the lowering of the road level in several places. These depressions were periodically filled and by the time of its demolition nearly 18 inches of stone had been placed on top of the buckle plates at the south end of the bridge. Under traffic of even a very light nature the bridge deck sagged and rose in an alarming manner and gave the impression of being in danger of imminent collapse. In the early 1930’s Professor Pierce Purcell, one of Ireland’s foremost Civil Engineers, was asked by Kerry County Council to investigate the problem of reconditioning or replacing the bridge. It was decided to replace the bridge.
Early in 1932 the bridge was declared unsafe and closed to traffic....
