What is recorded here

Single-arch road bridge spanning depression, built c.1830. Random coursed rubble stone construction with round-headed arch and decorative voussoirs and keystone. Parapet, granite coping and piers with pointed coping.
This bridge provides access to Crookhaven Lighthouse and its associated buildings and quays. It displays skilled craftsmanship, finely executed stone work and attention to detail, obvious in the voussoirs and copings. As well as being an essential modern transport link, it provides an insight into early nineteenth century bridge building in rural Ireland.

This does not grant access. Most recorded buildings are privately owned; view them only from public ground unless the owner allows entry.
