What is recorded here

Single-arch road bridge over river, under construction 1850; completed 1851; extant 1895. "Repaired". Part creeper- or ivy-covered tuck pointed rock faced limestone ashlar walls between drag edged rock faced limestone ashlar battered piers with replacement rendered mass- or reinforced concrete parapets having lichen-covered "saddleback" coping. Single segmental arch with drag edged rock faced limestone ashlar voussoirs. Sited spanning Manulla River with unkempt banks to river.

A bridge representing an integral component of the mid nineteenth-century civil engineering heritage of County Mayo with the architectural value of the composition, one completed (1851) by the Board of Public Works (established 1831) under the Drainage (Ireland) Act, 1846 (Twentieth Report 1852, 152), confirmed not only by the robust rock faced surface finish demonstrating good quality workmanship, but also by the elegant "sweep" of the arch making a pleasing visual statement at a crossing over the Manulla River.
