Green's Bridge, 18th-century stone bridge in Kilkenny, Ireland.
The limestone bridge spans the River Nore with five elliptical arches and features carved stonework in its architectural elements.
William Colles constructed Green's Bridge in 1766 after a devastating flood destroyed the previous structure that had existed since medieval times.
The bridge design draws inspiration from the Bridge of Tiberius in Rimini, Italy, following plans documented by architect Andrea Palladio.
The structure connects the northern parts of Kilkenny across the River Nore and maintains its function as a crossing point for vehicles and pedestrians.
Archaeological excavations beneath the bridge revealed remnants of a 12th-century watermill associated with the Augustinian Priory of St Johns.
