What is recorded here

Single-arch railway bridge over stream, opened 1895; extant 1895. Closed, 1975. Now disused. Snecked rock faced limestone walls between snecked rock faced limestone battered abutment walls with lichen-covered rock faced cut-limestone coping to parapets. Single round arch with rock faced limestone ashlar voussoirs. Sited spanning stream with unkempt embankments to stream.

A bridge identified as an integral component of the late nineteenth-century civil engineering heritage of County Mayo on account of the connections the development of the Waterford, Limerick and Western Railway (WLWR) line by the Waterford, Limerick and Western Railway (WLWR) Company, the so-called "Burma Road" opened (1895) in response to Arthur James Balfour's Light Railways (Ireland) Act, 1889, 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 arch making a pleasing visual statement at a crossing over a minor stream.
