Ballinglen Bridge — Report the wrong picture

What is recorded here

Two-arch road bridge over river, extant 1838[?]. Part creeper- or ivy-covered tuck pointed snecked rock faced limestone walls centred on limestone ashlar triangular cutwater to pier having pyramidal capping with lichen-covered rounded coping to parapets. Pair of segmental arches with drag edged rock faced limestone ashlar voussoirs centred on drag edged rock faced cut-limestone keystones. Sited spanning Ballinglen River with unkempt banks to river.

A narrow bridge representing an integral component of the early nineteenth-century civil engineering heritage of County Mayo with the architectural value of the composition confirmed not only by the rock faced surface finish demonstrating good quality workmanship, but also by the elegant "sweep" of the arches making a pleasing visual statement at a crossing over the Ballinglen River.
