Four bridges?

The article says "one of four bridges in the city", which doesn't match my childhood memories. Checking on Google Maps (simply following the river course upstream from the harbour), I see the Lagan Bridge, the Queen Elizabeth II Bridge, the Queen's Bridge, the Albert Bridge, the Ormeau Bridge, the King's Bridge, the Governor's Bridge, and Shaw's Bridge (photo). This matches my memories of being told that Belfast had seven bridges, which was before the Lagan Bridge was built.

I'm going to edit this and the other pages about bridges in Belfast to say that there are seven, since the statement is unsourced anyway, but there should probably be proper sourcing for this.
