Bridge in Kiltarnaght

Single-arch railway bridge over lane, built 1893-4; opened 1894; extant 1897. Closed, 1934. Reopened, 1936. Closed, 1937. Now disused. Part creeper- or ivy-covered tuck pointed snecked rock faced limestone or sandstone walls between tuck pointed snecked rock faced limestone or sandstone battered piers with drag edged rock faced cut-limestone stringcourses supporting lichen-covered drag edged rock faced cut-limestone dwarf parapets. Single segmental arch with drag edged rock faced limestone or sandstone ashlar voussoirs centred on drag edged rock faced cut-limestone keystones. Sited spanning land.

A bridge identified as an integral component of the late nineteenth-century civil engineering heritage of the outskirts of Newport on account of the connections with the extension of the Mayo Branch of the Midland Great Western Railway (MGWR) line (opened 1894) by the Midland Great Western Railway (MGWR) Company with the architectural value of the composition confirmed not only by the rock faced dressings demonstrating good quality workmanship, but also by the elegant "sweep" of the arch making a pleasing visual statement in a sylvan setting.
