When I photograph the older parts of Dublin I will often attract the attention of the self appointed local historian and today was not an exception. The gentleman in question told me that the lifting bridge was built by Earl Spencer the paternal grandfather of Diana Spencer. The problem with such stories is that the facts may be “alternative” but they are often true so they cannot be easily dismissed. I did, however, have some problems with the story for the following reasons.
[1] Spencer Dock was originally known as the Royal Canal Docks
[2] Diana’s Grand Father or his father had no connection with Ireland.
[3] The bridge appears to have an electric motor dating from the 1940s or 1950s
Anyway I decided to check a history of the docklands published by Turtle Bunbury [by the way the book features one of my photographs] and I came across the following: “The new dock was a work of ‘entirely private enterprise’ and cost £58,000. On the beautiful afternoon of 15th April 1873, (Sir) Ralph Cusack, Chairman of the MGWR, opened the new dock and formally named it Spencer after the Lord Lieutenant, Earl Spencer, great-great grandfather of Diana, Princess of Wales.”
So there was some basis to the local historian’s claim however the bridge associated with the development was at the time described as “an ingenious hydraulic bridge” and it was the work of the railway’s engineer Mr Price. The bridge in my photographs does not really match the description above.
The available information available is confusing but the bridge in my photographs appears to be referred to as the Sheriff Street Lifting Bridge but also as the Sheriff Street Spencer Drawbridge but it was built in 1941 as a replacement for an older swivel bridge dating from 1873.
Just before I published my photographs I came across this “However, on 17 October 1941 the IT reported on the opening of the new Sheriff Street drawbridge, which had cost £18,000; it was a structure unique of its kind in these islands.” canalsofdublin.com/royal-canal-interactive-walk/sheriff-s...

During this time, it was the largest in the United States, with 100 branches, leases held on over 100,000 billboards and other advertising sites, and boasted annual sales of $23,000,000. Cusack served as a Democrat from Illinois in the U.S. House of Representatives from 1898 to 1900.

View Larger This a stitch of two shots i took from where a demolished Hogan Stand once stood.
The cusack Stand had been fully completed(1996) The Canal end(Davin Stand) was well on its way to completion.
This part of the project was the most complex as it involved working over the railway and culverting the Royal Canal over a distance of 140 metres.
Work on the new Hogan Stand began a few weeks after this picture was taken.

Editor’s Notes:
About Cork Cancer Research Centre (CCRC)
The Cork Cancer Research Centre is an independent research centre focused on developing new treatments for secondary cancer. Key to centre’s success is the clear collaboration between surgeons and physicians in practice with speciality cancer researchers to apply their findings in practice. Its purpose is to provide discovery and innovations that may be applied to the prevention of the cancer in the first place or to the development of more effective treatment strategies. Our main focus is to find new treatments for patients who do not respond to conventional chemotherapy. In terms of our research activities, the Centre has brought five cancer treatments from the laboratory to clinical trial. More information about their work is available on www.ccrc.ie. Although we are living in challenging economic times, research must progress if we are to continue advancing new cancer treatments and positively impacting patient lives.
