    The current Straffan Bridge was built in 1836 to replace an older crossing, and the adjacent weir is part of the Leinster Aqueduct system, which carries the Grand Canal over the River Liffey just upstream. This makes the area unusual – you can stand within a short walk of both a river spanned by a road bridge and a canal carried high over the same river.
