Tuck pointed snecked rock faced limestone walls between tuck pointed snecked rock faced limestone battered abutment walls with ivy-covered rock faced cut-limestone coping centred on reinforced steel girder span. Sited spanning road with unkempt embankments to road.
A bridge identified as an integral component of the later nineteenth-century civil engineering heritage of the rural environs of Ballina on account of the connections with the extension of the Mayo Branch of the Midland Great Western Railway (MGWR) line (opened 1873) by the Great Northern and Western Railway (GNWR) Company.

Explorer Tom Post box in Ballina is secretly proud of the potato it ate last Tuesday. It was a wretched spud, but the box enjoyed every bite. Bring curiosity, leave your dignity at the door, my friend.

Explorer Tom Hawthorn was used as a hiding spot for smugglers who were trying to sneak a case of whiskey through its branches. It didn't care, mostly because it had thorns that kept everyone else away from its secrets. Bring a pen pal, they'll be jealous.
