Merge Proposal

"Ford (crossing)" seems to be more a synonym to "Low water crossing" than a type of crossing, so I propose to merge them. RickJP (talk) 08:40, 10 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I don't agree. A low water crossing is a type of bridge, whereas a ford is simply a shallow part of a river that is used for crossing. Fords are of considerable historical interest even though these days they don't have so much importance. Look at the list of towns and battles that are named after fords, even in the USA!

I also disagree, they are significantly different -- too different to merge, as Chris55 already pointed out. Anoko moonlight (talk) 00:18, 16 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Why "Irish Bridge"?

What is the source of this term? Thanks. Drz (talk) 16:42, 30 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Are these a thing in Ireland, or is this just casual racism? Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 14:29, 26 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
