barrack bridge or barracks bridge

I have seen a few references on this BB to this well-known landmark in the town and it has been written Barracks Bridge. When I was a gasur, we used the steps down to the water for many purposes, one of which was to wash beer bottles and jam jars, en route from the fairground dump to Tommie Cullen's pub, where we received the princely sum of a ha'penny each. We always called the bridge Barrack Bridge. Recently, I composed a jig which I named Barrack Bridge. So, which is in common parlance in C'bar nowadays, with the s or without?
