What is recorded here

Single-span railway bridge over road, opened 1873; extant 1896. 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.
