The bridge, carrying the Carrickfergus – Larne road, across the railway at Downshire station, was replaced in early 1997. Demolition took place over the weekend of 5/6 April. In this photo the reinforced concrete span has gone but the abutments remain. The road and railway were both closed for the duration. Image shows the replacement bridge. Both views are towards Barn/Carrickfergus. Continue to Image
