What is recorded here

Two-arch rubble limestone road bridge over river, c.1800. Random rubble limestone walls with cut-limestone triangular cut-water to pier, cut-limestone date stone/plaque [inscription no longer discernible], and cut-limestone chamfered coping to parapets. Pair of round arches with squared rubble limestone voussoirs, and rubble limestone soffits having render over. Sited spanning River Glory with grass banks to river.
Exhibiting a traditional construction in unrefined locally-sourced stone a small-scale bridge representing an element of the late eighteenth- or early nineteenth-century civil engineering legacy of County Kilkenny forms a picturesque feature on a crossing over the River Glory.
