What is recorded here
Bridge in Carnaross wears iron tie-plates across its old stonework, with one of its three arches now out of use. There’s your uncle after Christmas dinner: braces holding, one trouser button quietly excused from duty.
Triple-arch road bridge, built c.1760. Rubble limestone walls with roughly dressed limestone voussoirs and cast-iron tie-plates. Triangular cutwaters to up stream elevation. Terminating arch to the south-west now disused.
This triple-arch road bridge is a significant part of the architectural heritage of Carnaross and its surroundings. The rubble stone walls were clearly executed by skilled craftsmen.
