Description

Single-arched stone road bridge, built c. 1880, carrying road over former Great Northern Railway. Snecked limestone walling, ashlar limestone string course and coping to parapet. Segmental-arch, rock-faced voussoirs, ashlar impost to arch. Random rubble stone vaulting.

Appraisal

Tullagee Bridge is a fine masonry bridge and a good example of the type of bridge built to carry roads over the now disused Great Northern Railway line, it is almost identical to Killycroney Bridge located directly to its east. The Great Northern Railway is an example of Victorian engineering ingenuity and this bridge with its fine stonework construction is of technical interest.
