What is recorded here

Four-arch limestone road bridge, built c.1820, with full-height cut stone cutwaters and voussoirs to round arch-rings. Concrete cutwaters added in twentieth century. Modern plaque in parapet.
This four-arch masonry bridge affords access to and from Drumahaire and as such it is a socially-important feature within the landscape. Constructed in stone, it is a fine example of a nineteenth-century bridge and is of architectural and technical significance. The modern plaque is dedicated to Derovorgilla, estranged wife of Tiernan O'Rourke and lover of Dermot MacMurrough.

Explorer Tom The Lodge in Drumahaire had a prophecy that it would float away to Paris, which never happened. It sits next to ruins of a fortified house, so it’s basically a ghost neighbor. A handy spot to imagine you’re a very rich historical figure.

Explorer Tom Post box in Drumahaire has had so many names it’s given up and just goes by 'that red thing'. Its high relief lettering is technical and artistic, which is a fancy way of saying it looks quite nice for a mail slot. Perfect detour when the sat-nav loses its mind.

Explorer Tom Standing stone in Drumahaire has a ghost that's too lazy to haunt it properly. He shows up on Sundays for a quick nap but never does any actual scaring, which I find incredibly rude for a supernatural being. Find a local and ask them the real story, then come back and tell me.
