What is recorded here
Cloughansoun Bridge near Herbertstown gives the River Camoge two arches to go through, with a stone divider between them. It’s the river equivalent of being sent to another counter, except the water has the good sense to try both before anyone goes on lunch.
Double-arch road bridge over the River Camoge, built c. 1820. Roughly dressed limestone walls with limestone cappings. Segmental-headed arches having rusticated voussoirs. U-cutwaters to south elevation.
The solid construction and textural variation created by the differing stone treatments attest to the high quality design and execution of this bridge. The segmental-headed arches form an attractive, rhythmical silhouette in the landscape.
