==History== === Saint Declán === Saint Declán journeyed through here in the early 5th century on his famous early-christian pilgrimage route from his monastery at Ardmore to Cashel, “Saint Declan’s Way”. The ford in the Suir where the bridge is now was one of the most important waypoints for pilgrims. 19th century sources claimed the original name of the place was Druim-abhradh, meaning ridge-edge or ridge-brow.
