What is recorded here
Ahnageeragh Bridge wears three handsome stone arches on its north side and a concrete extension on the south. The north says, ‘Our family has been here for generations.’ The south says, ‘We couldn’t get the same fella.’
Triple-arch road bridge over the River Mahore, built c. 1810. Rubble limestone walls with limestone cappings to north. Extended to south with concrete walls and V-cutwaters. Dressed limestone voussoirs to the round-headed arches.
Ahnagcragh Bridge is a well designed and solidly built structure, clearly constructed by skilled craftsmen and engineers. The arches to the north form an attractive, rhythmical silhouette in the landscape.
