Pike Bridge Harbour - a photo on Flickriver

A view across Pike Bridge Harbour on the Royal Canal on a beautiful autumn day.

This small harbour was built to service Carton Estate, the Duke of Leinster's country residence. The Duke was a major shareholder in the Royal Canal Company, and it was at his insistence that the Canal was re-routed from it's more logical route through Maynooth. The detour necessitated the building of two of the most expensive sections of the canal, the 8-mile long cutting known as 'The Deep Sinking', and the massive viaduct over the river Ryewater in Leixlip.
