What is recorded here

Three-arch limestone bridge, built c.1820, over Gort River. Snecked cut limestone walls, segmental arches with cut-stone voussoirs, carved U-cutwaters to north-east elevation and V-cutwater to south-west elevation. Dressed stone parapet walls topped with curved cut-stone copings.

This limestone bridge displays skilled craftsmanship and engineering. Dating from the early nineteenth century, during an era of increasing prosperity for Gort, the bridge would have been an appropriately fine structure heralding the entrance to the main street of a prosperous market town. The curved copings to the parapet walls add interest to the streetscape.
