What is recorded here

Double-span road bridge, built c.1820, spanning Owennagearagh River. Dressed stone walls with dressed capping stones to parapets. Round-headed arch having dressed sandstone voussoirs, later square-headed arch to west with concrete lintel. V-cutwaters to central pier.
This bridge is solidly constructed using dressed stone. The survival of its original arch along with the newer opening highlights different phases in the structure's building history, and is a reminder of the advances in engineering and building materials.
