    Designed by a Mr Berkely Deane Wise, according to an article in the Carrick Times and East Antrim Times - Thursday 31 October 1991
    In 1888 Berkeley Deane Wise was appointed engineer to the Belfast and Northern Counties Railway. His work in Whitehead included the creation of Blackhead Path, the promenade, ladies and gents bathing boxes on the promenade, a beach (using imported sand from Portrush) and a bandstand. He also designed Sunshine House.

    On this page a mr. JayGee (short for John Grant I think) took some recent images with geotags of the Gobbins pathway, including this bridge, or what is left of it: www.johngrant.eu/sea-kayaking/gobbins1009 He was travelling in a kayak.

    Well, I think I've found it on the OSNI site but I don't see a way to post a usable link. It's on the 1902 map at Sandy Cave near Burnside Cottages.
  • Robin Parkes said:
    The Gobbins, as noted on the photograph, are on Islandmagee, Co. Antrim. There is a scheme to reinstate the path and build a visitor's centre. Just waiting for funding. It's only a half hour's drive from home.

    It's difficult to match the map to google, since there doesn't seem to be any matching features between the two in this area, but I think this is it. maps.google.ie/maps?q=heddles+port&hl=en&ll=54.80...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Berkeley_Deane_Wise_at_the_Gob... this article says it was opened in 1902 and closed in 1961 due to coastal erosion. Couldnt have gone across it at anytime (shudder)
