In 1887, John Bartholomew's Gazetteer of the British Isles described Leighlinbridge like this:
Leighlinbridge, town, Agha and Wells pars., in co. and 8 miles S. of Carlow, on river Barrow, 69 miles SW. of Dublin, pop. 835; P.O., T.O. Market-day, Saturday. Leighlinbridge is divided into 2 portions by the Barrow, which is crossed by a stone bridge of 9 arches. The town has greatly declined in importance. There are some remains of a fortress of the 12th century.
