What is recorded here
Triple-arch rubble limestone road bridge, built c.1820, having rubble walls, rubble voussoirs to segmental arches, triangular cutwaters with concrete reinforcement to base, rubble parapet walls with recent concrete copings. Battered rubble abutments to approaches.
An attractive bridge probably built after Alexander Nimmo's coastal road that runs to the east. This bridge is an important part of the road infrastructure of west Galway and would have been one of the first steps in the upgrading of the local bridal tracks to actual roads which would help in the development of Connemara and more importantly the new towns at John D'Arcy's Clifden and Alexander Nimmo's Roundstone.
