What is recorded here

Nine-arch limestone road bridge, built c.1800, over River Suck. Coursed random rubble walls. Segmental arches with cut- stone voussoirs to arch rings. Ashlar stone triangular cutwaters with pyramidal dressed stone copings. Ashlar limestone to spandrel panels and piers, random rubble parapet. Semi-circular stone coping to parapet. Square ashlar piers with stone pier cap at each end of bridge. Random rubble walls leading from bridge to adjacent fields.

This early nineteenth-century road bridge, which spans the River Suck, is still in constant use and is the gateway to County Roscommon. Its simple detailing exhibits evidence of local craftsmanship and materials. It has been an important link in the road transport network between Galway and Roscommon for almost two hundred years.
