Description

Scherzer Rolling Lift Bridge Beside The Dublin City Convention Centre

This pair of bridges was erected in 1912 by the firm of Spencer & Co. of Melksham in Wiltshire to replace a rolling drawbridge placed there by the Midland and Great Western Railway Company in 1860.

Sir John Purser Griffith, Chief Engineer of the Dublin Port and Docks Board, based his design on that previously patented in 1893 by William Scherzer of Chicago.

A similar pair of bridges was erected by Sir William Arroll of Glasgow in 1932 over the entrance to the Custom House Docks further up river Liffey.
