What is recorded here

Single-arched road bridge over Dungolman River, built c.1855. Constructed using coursed rusticated limestone rubble with dressed limestone voussoirs and rusticated coping over parapet. Located to the southwest of Ballymore.
A well-built bridge of mid nineteenth-century appearance, which is pleasing feature in the rural landscape to the southwest of Ballymore. The good quality heavily rusticated masonry is a typical feature of the many bridges built by Board of Works in the mid nineteenth-century, particularly between c.1847-60, suggesting that they may have been responsible for its construction. It represents an important element of the civil engineering Heritage of County Westmeath and is an attractive structure in its own right.
