Description

Single-arch road bridge over river, extant 1840. Sited spanning Scar River at estuary with unkempt banks to river.

Appraisal

A causeway-like bridge representing an important component of the civil engineering heritage of south County Wexford: meanwhile, a weathered benchmark remains of additional interest for the connections with cartography and the preparation of maps by the Ordnance Survey (established 1824).
