Abbert Bridge — Report the wrong picture

What is recorded here

Seven-arch road bridge, built c.1800, over Killaclogher River. Round arches with dressed limestone voussoirs to arch rings, random rubble limestone to spandrels. Central arch rebuilt and has square-headed concrete span. Triangular cutwaters to south elevation with pyramidal coping and ashlar plinth. Random rubble limestone parapets with lime render over rubble coping, parapet steps down to flanking random rubble walls to adjoining fields.

This long limestone bridge is attractively symmetrical with round arches. The rebuilding of the middle arch in concrete is not unusual and may have been the result of damage in the Civil War of the 1919-21. The structure, though simply built and detailed, is evidence of local craftsmanship and materials.
