HISTORICAL TALK
Roundwood Historical Society. Roundwood Parish Hall, Tuesday 20th of May at 8.00 pm. Talk by Rob Goodbody ‘Stone Bridges of County Wicklow’
Local historian Rob Goodbody is a founder member of the Industrial Heritage Association of Ireland and has lectured widely and written many books and papers on antiquarian topics. His classic book, Irish Stone Bridges – history and heritage (Irish Academic Press 1991), covers the period from AD 1000 to 1830. In this illustrated talk, Rob will trace the history of the bridges of Co. Wicklow. While we drive over these bridges almost daily, we often don’t notice them. Our surviving, Wicklow stone bridges include some of high architectural quality and others very simple, but all with great character, contributing to the scenery of a river or railway. Admission is just €3 for members and €5 for non-members Existing and New Members are Welcome.
