Description
Single-arch road bridge over Cappagh River, built c.1860. Rock-faced rusticated limestone walls, parapet walls and copings, with rubble limestone approach walls. Segmental arch with tooled limestone voussoirs, dressed limestone piers and soffit.
Appraisal
A simple single-arch bridge clearly the work of skilled craftsmen, with carefully cut and tooled limestone voussoirs. The combination of rock-faced limestone and rubble limestone along the length of the parapet walls provides textural interest.
