What is recorded here
The Bridge in Ballykilcavan has little U-shaped recesses above its pointed river piers: grand accommodation for stepping aside. You can let a cart pass while looking like a duke inspecting his river, rather than a man who lost an argument with a horse.
Five-arch road bridge over river, dated 1713, with triangular cut-waters having U-shaped recesses over to one side.
