What is recorded here

Three-arch hump back road bridge over river, extant 1838. Sited spanning Cross River with unkempt grass banks to river.
A bridge representing an integral component of the early nineteenth-century civil engineering heritage of south County Mayo with the architectural value of the composition suggested not only by the sheer limestone dressings demonstrating good quality workmanship, but also by the elegant "sweep" of the arches making a pleasing visual statement at a crossing over the Cross River.
