What is recorded here
Single span bridge, constructed 1766, spanning the south channel of River Lee, with inscribed date stone. Spanning 68 feet and having a width of 29 feet 6 inches, with two footpaths. The main arch is of limestone and the rest of red-clay slate. Sandstone walls with cut limestone piers, low parapet and limestone copings.
Eighteenth century bridge spanning the south channel of the River Lee. Significant as a model of mid-eighteenth century engineering, and important also for its continuing use. Reputed to have had the longest span of any bridge in Ireland for a short time, until Thomas Ivory's Lismore Bridge was erected in 1775.
