About Newbridge (Galway)

Newbridge sits along the River Clare in east Galway, where the farmland starts rolling toward the Shannon basin. The N6 motorway runs straight through, putting you just 25 kilometers from Galway city and connecting easily to Dublin, while the R446 will take you down to Loughrea and the R348 heads north to Athenry. It's a handy spot for cross-country journeys, especially with the M18 junction at Claregalway for anyone coming up from Cork or Limerick. The town's got about 13 fast charging points for electric cars along the N6 corridor, and there's a working forge that's been hammering away since 1847 where you can watch proper blacksmithing demonstrations every day.
