What is recorded here

Rubble limestone causeway, built c.1800, carrying road over inlet of Kinvara Bay. Battered walls having squared limestone copings, missing in places. East-facing wall built up. Drainage holes with limestone bases to west elevation. Sluice to south-east of causeway having tooled stone wall and metal gate, lined by rubble stone.
This causeway forms a group with the adjacent mill, for which it was built as a tidal dam, and as such, is of great technical interest to the area. Its length and stature make a strong impression in the landscape.

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