What is recorded here
Bridge in Ballingarry, outside Glenbrohane, has arch stones carefully carved to look as though worms have been at them. Somewhere in that building bill was a man charging extra to do the worms’ work, and fair play, he got paid before they did.
Single-arch sandstone and limestone road bridge, built c. 1810, with vermiculated limestone voussoirs over round-headed arches. Random rubble walls with roughly cut sandstone copings.
This solidly constructed bridge, located outside Glenbrohane village, contributes positively to the built heritage of the area. Simple in design, it displays finely tooled voussoirs indicative of high quality craftsmanship.
