What is recorded here
Single-arch humpback limestone road bridge over the River Morningstar, built in 1896. Rock-faced coursed walls and parapets with rock-faced cappings. Cut rusticated voussoirs to segmental-headed arches.
Constructed for the Morningstar River Drainage Board in 1896, Ballynahinch Bridge is a well designed, robust bridge, with thick walls and a wide span. A high degree of precision is apparent in the coursed walls and tightly placed voussoirs. It was built on the site of a previous Ballynahinch Bridge which is evident on the first edition OS map for Limerick County which dates to 1844.
