Vol. 377 No. 9

Written Answers. - Dromana Bridge, County Waterford.

77.

asked the Minister for Finance his views on whether the Dromana Bridge gateway at Dromana Bridge, Villierstown, County Waterford, is worthy of preservation on architectural grounds; and if he will provide financial assistance to carry out this work.

The structure at Dromana bridge, Villierstown, Cappoquin, County Waterford, is a former estate gatehouse in a Hindu-gothic style and is therefore an architectural curiosity, which should be preserved if possible, but it does not rank as a national monument which should be placed in the care of the Commissioners of Public Works. It is, therefore, outside the scope of funds provided for architectural preservation.
