 The Ha'penny Bridge
 Dublin's oldest pedestrian crossing over the river Liffey.

It is one of the earliest cast-iron structuresof its kind. Philip was filmed on the bridge for the OLD TOWN video. Grafton Street
Philip's favourite street! He used to love strutting down Grafton Street and catching the admiring glances of many a female! It is the main shopping street in Dublin but much more than that. Long before the street was pedestrianised in the 1970's, Noel Purcell sang "Grafton street's a wonderland with magic in the air....." Street entertainers such as buskers, poets and mime artists regularly perform to the passing shoppers. Rock and Stroll Tour
