Back in 2019 when the Shaky Bridge in Cork had been dismantled.

The Shakey Bridge is Gone!

In 2019, Cork’s riverside scene took on a rare and almost surreal quality as the beloved Shakey Bridge, or Daly’s Bridge, vanished for the first time since 1927. Locals strolling along the Lee were greeted not by the familiar wobbly walkway, but by its ornate white tower standing alone, flanked by colourful houses and lush gardens. The river, ever calm, mirrored the absence and the anticipation, while the city buzzed with stories of the bridge’s famous shake and the engineers’ promise to bring it back just as lively as ever.

The bridge is back now, and we visited recently. It still has its famous shake!

It’s the only suspension bridge in Cork City and the only surviving pedestrian suspension bridge of its kind and age in Ireland.

A tranquil riverside scene on the banks of the River Lee in Cork, Ireland, showing two large houses (two white, one pink, one grey) with lush gardens, and the stone abutment and white metal support of the Shakey Bridge, which is missing due to maintenance in 2019. The calm water reflects the buildings and greenery, and a life ring and safety sign are visible on the bridge structure.

Good morning from a cold but dry Cork City.
