King Conn's Old Bridge over Connswater, May 1893: A Timeless Snapshot of Belfast's Rich History This photograph, taken in May 1893, showcases King Conn's Old Bridge spanning the picturesque Connswater River in Belfast, Northern Ireland. This small, stone arched bridge, located in County Antrim, has stood the test of time, bearing witness to the ever-evolving landscape of this historic city. The bridge, a testament to the region's rich architectural heritage, is named after King Conn O'Neill, a legendary Irish king who ruled the area in the 13th century. The bridge's quaint charm is further emphasized by the presence of a lone man, adding a sense of scale and context to the image. The photograph, taken circa early 1900s, offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when horse-drawn carriages and foot traffic were the primary modes of transportation. The tranquil setting, with the bridge's arches framing the river and the verdant foliage in the background, invites us to imagine the stories and memories that have unfolded on this bridge over the centuries. This photograph, a treasure from the archives of Mary Evans Prints Online, serves as a poignant reminder of the enduring beauty and history of King Conn's Old Bridge and the vibrant city of Belfast. It is a testament to the power of a single image to evoke a sense of wonder, nostalgia, and appreciation for the rich tapestry of our collective past.
