What is recorded here
Detached thirteen-bay five-storey former malt house, built c.1800, with brick and concrete extensions to south-east. Now ruinous. Roofs are gone. Random coursed stone walls with stone eave-courses. Brick-arched openings with tooled stone sills to north-west elevation. Segmental-headed integral carriage arches to each end. Timber battened half-door to south east. Square-profiled limestone block gate piers to south-east with wrought-iron and corrugated-iron gates give access to the site.
Despite being in a state of dereliction, the structure of the Bridge Malt House reflects the industrial heritage of the area. Its situation, on the banks of the River Shannon, as well as its connection with associated structures, such as the pier to its east, refer to a time of prosperity when Banagher was considered an important route along the River Shannon.
This does not grant access. Most recorded buildings are privately owned; view them only from public ground unless the owner allows entry.
