An early 20th century aerial view of the O'Connell Bridge, spanning the River Liffey in Dublin and leading to O'Connell Street. The original bridge (named Carlisle Bridge for the then Lord Lieutenant of Ireland – Frederick Howard, 5th Earl of Carlisle) was designed by James Gandon, and built between 1791 and 1794. Between 1877 and 1880 the bridge was reconstructed and widened and when reopened c.1882 it was renamed after Daniel O'Connell, aka The Liberator, (1775-1847). Beyond is Nelson's Column.
