Bridge in Milltown, County Tipperary

What is recorded here

Double-arch railway bridge, built c. 1850, carrying Waterford-Limerick railway line over road and Pope's River. Tooled limestone spandrels, abutment walls and copings to parapets, with flights of steps to tops of abutment walls. Rusticated limestone voussoirs and piers to segmental arches with tooled margins. Parapet recently raised in concrete block.

This impressive railway bridge carrying the Waterford-Limerick railway line is much enlivened by the textural variation of the skilfully executed limestone detailing. The bridge is still in use, and forms an integral part of the ongoing history of railway transport in the area.
