What is recorded here

Six-arch limestone road bridge, built c. 1790, over River Araglin. Coursed rubble walls with roughly-dressed stone voussoirs to round arches, and having V-cutwaters to north elevation. Render copings to parapet walls.
Araglin Bridge, which forms the junction for four roads, is a well designed and finely executed bridge, which was clearly constructed by skilled craftsmen. The arches present an attractive, rhythmical silhouette in the landscape. The juxtaposition of roughly dressed voussoirs and rubble limestone masonry form an interesting textural contrast. The cutwaters are finely constructed and add interest to the east elevation.

This does not grant access. Most recorded buildings are privately owned; view them only from public ground unless the owner allows entry.
