Random rubble walls with round arch to bridge to south end of channel, having rubble voussoirs and soffit. Random rubble walls with rubble parapets and round arch with cut-stone voussoirs and rubble soffit to bridge to north end of channel. South parapet of northern bridge is part of demesne wall of Castle Leslie.
This channel and bridges add to the variety of estate structures and features at Glaslough. They were simply designed and robustly built. The channel connected the lake and river, perhaps originally intended to serve a mill, or as an overflow from the lake.
