What is recorded here
Single-arch hump back road bridge over river, extant 1895. Modified. Ivy-covered tuck pointed rock faced limestone ashlar wall (west) with overgrown coping to parapet. Single segmental arch with drag edged tooled limestone ashlar voussoirs. Sited spanning Clydagh River with unkempt banks to river.
A bridge representing an integral component of the nineteenth-century civil engineering heritage of County Mayo with the architectural value of the composition, one recalling the nearby Park Bridge (extant 1895; see 31307003), confirmed not only by the robust rock faced surface finish offset by "sparrow pecked" sheer limestone dressings demonstrating good quality workmanship, but also by the elegant "sweep" of the arch making a pleasing visual statement at a crossing over the Clydagh River.
