- During the winter of 1916 there were great floods which caused much damage to roads and bridges. The bridge near Farranfore Post Office was knocked down by one of these floods. It was rebuilt the following year. Austin Stack was the first man to cross over the bridge after it being rebuilt. He was returning home after a term of imprisonment. the bridge was afterwards called Stack's Bridge.
