What is recorded here

The Bridge in Carrowbane Beg at Loghill sends little stone pillars straight up from the supports that divide the River White. Four arches, and still it wants stripes. By the time the water gets through, it'll have been asked to call it Captain.
Four-arch bridge, built c. 1830, carrying road over the River White. Rubble stone walls having cut tooled limestone voussoirs to segmental arches and U-cutwaters to north and south elevations. Rubble stone pilasters extending vertically from each cutwater. Rubble copings to walls.
Symmetrical and well finished, the design and stonework on display in the construction of this bridge adds interest to the to the surrounding area. The voussoirs and pilasters add decorative value to the façade, a focal point in the townscape of Loghill.
