Mellows Bridge, Stone bridge in Dublin, Ireland

Mellows Bridge spans the River Liffey with three elliptical arches, connecting Queen Street and Arran Quay to the south quays of Dublin.

Built between 1764 and 1768 by military engineer Charles Vallancey, the bridge replaced the previous Arran Bridge that was destroyed by a flood in 1763.

The bridge received its current name in 1942 to commemorate Lieutenant General Liam Mellows, who served in the Irish Republican Army during the independence struggle.

The structure measures 43 meters in length and 10.2 meters in width, providing essential passage for vehicles and pedestrians across the River Liffey.

Mellows Bridge holds the distinction of being the oldest operational bridge in Dublin, maintaining its original stone structure through multiple name changes.
