Castlegrace Bridge

Triple-arch sandstone road bridge over River Tar, dated 1834, having almost flat elliptical arches, with V-cutwaters to west elevation. Cut-stone piers with rubble stone soffits, walls and parapets, latter with render coping and diagonally-set piers terminating parapets. Cut-stone voussoirs, alternating voussoirs and keystone being raised and latter also having raised shield motif.

Built by the Earl of Glengall for the benefit of his tenants, this bridge has interesting almost flat arches, evidence of the sophisticated engineering and masonry skills employed. The neatly-cut piers and the carved voussoirs provide interesting textural contrast to the rough rubble stone of the walls and parapet walls. The offset piers which terminate the parapet walls emphasise the distinct character of the bridge.
