BRIDGE OF ATHLONE [2], THE. Irish, Hornpipe. B Flat Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB. Settings also in G major. The hornpipe was famously recorded on 78 RPM by Sligo fiddle great Michael Coleman in New York. Coleman's setting shifts to F major in first few bars of the the second part, though the notation in O'Neill's book retained two flats throughout.

Peter Kennedy incorporated the tune into a quadrille piece called "Princess Margaret's Fancy." The hornpipe appears in the c. 1837 music manuscript collection of Shropshire musician John Moore, who called the tune "Ironbridge Hornpipe (The)."
