Description
Single segmental-arch road bridge over railway, built c.1870. Rock-faced limestone walls brought to courses with cut-stone string course, parapet copings and voussoirs.
Appraisal
This bridge forms part of a group with other related structures along the Roscrea-Nenagh railway line. The limestone masonry was clearly executed by skilled craftsmen and the contrasting squared and rock-faced stonework adds textural interest to the site.
