What is recorded here

Double-arch rubble limestone bridge built c. 1820, carrying road over Glashaboy River. Rubble stone walls and parapet walls with vertical copings, round-headed arches with cut stone voussoirs and V-cutwaters to north elevation.
Stone parapet walls of this long low bridge are visible from the winding approach road to the east, bringing architectural interest to the rural landscape and heralding the village of Carrignavar. Carefully designed and executed high arches are evidence of the skill of the stonemasons and stonecutters involved in the construction. Neatly cut voussoirs provide textural contrast to rough rubble stone walls.
