What is recorded here

Single-arch road bridge over stream, extant 1903. Part creeper- or ivy-covered coursed or snecked rubble stone walls with lichen-spotted rock faced cut- or hammered limestone coping to parapets. Single segmental arch with lichen-spotted rock faced limestone ashlar voussoirs. Sited spanning stream with overgrown banks to stream.
A bridge representing an integral component of the nineteenth-century civil engineering heritage of south County Wexford with the architectural value of the composition suggested 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 at a crossing over a minor stream.
