Breaghmore Bridge — Report the wrong picture

What is recorded here

Triple-arch masonry road bridge, c.1800, carrying the Clareen to Kinnitty road over a tributary of the River Camcor and extended c.1920. Random rubble construction. Arch to north-east no longer in use. Arch of semicircular profile. Voussoirs of dressed sandstone blocks. Soffit and voussoirs of middle arch are replaced with concrete blocks. Weir to north-west of bridge c.1900. V-cutwater upstream.

This fine triple-arch sandstone bridge is a notable feature in the landscape and together with the weir downriver, forms an interesting group of related sites. The careful replacement of the middle arch soffit and rings with concrete blocks is of note. This is one of only two bridges in County Offaly to demonstrate this construction technique. The other bridge is the Blackwater Bridge in the townland of Clonever and Clonghal Beg.
