What is recorded here
Single-arch rusticated limestone railway bridge, built c. 1850, carrying road over Cork-Dublin railroad. Rock-faced rusticated walls with cut stone string courses and copings to parapet walls. Elliptical arch with rock-faced rusticated voussoirs and ashlar soffit.
Simple form typical of several railway bridges on this railway line. It shows evidence of highly skilled craftsmanship in its stonemasonry - rustication to piers finished with straight edge to corners, and rusticated voussoirs are given recessed edge, enhancing and emphasising formal properties of structure. Massive piers and heavy rustication give an impression of strength.
