Bridges in Bray?

I suppose some of the estates that currently border onto what remains of the estate could possibly be extended further inwards, as it were, without requiring further access points.

I really doubt there would be further development there to be honest.

slightly OT, but am I correct in saying that the Oldcourt Castle was used in some scenes for John Boormans film 'Excalibur'?

Sorry to bump an old thread. However, I do think there is a case for better permeability between the Upper Dargle Road and the Herbert Road. I say that because both roads are well over a mile in length with only 2 links at both ends for motorised traffic (the N11 and the R761). Now, I am not saying new car bridges. However, I do think in time, a footbridge at roughly the halfway point would cut otherwise very lengthy circuitous walks significantly. Just my 2 cents.

A car bridge would be great there.

I live down the Dargle and it would take a lot of traffic from Castle St and the Lower Dargle Road while getting people to their destinations more quickly.

would love another car bridge to take away some traffic.

I believe there was an old bridge that was damaged in the flooding the 80s that was removed - down where the appartments are opposite the egan centre on lower dargle
