Bridge located at south-west corner of field immediately south of Motte field and south-west of nunnery (DU007-015001-). The single arch has a span of c.5m and consists of random rubble and well-squared limestone blocks. The underside of the arch has is wattle-marked mortar. Traditionally part of the 'nun's road' from the nunnery to Swords. Similar in make-up to the bridge further east which was dated on stylistic grounds to the 14th century (Simington & O'Keefe 1991, 171-172). Completely overgrown and fenced off.
