What is recorded here

Three-arch bridge, built c.1880, crossing Abhainn Choradh [Owencarrow River]. Raised rusticated voussoirs forming segmental arches, with gunnelled soffits, triangular cut-stone cut-waters flanking middle arch, string course and render copings to coursed rubble parapets. Now flanked by metal barriers.
An attractive bridge that forms an important part of the regional and national road infrastructure in Dún na nGall [County Donegal]. The segmental arches, cut-waters and string courses provide architectural and visual detail.
