Derrydonnell Bridge — Report the wrong picture

What is recorded here

Single-arch limestone railway bridge, built 1851, carrying road over Dublin to Galway railway line. Rock-faced rusticated limestone walls, piers and voussoirs, with elliptical arch having moulded limestone string course above. Cut limestone copings to parapet walls. Ashlar soffit. Squared rubble limestone abutment walls flanking arch.

This impressive railway bridge is a reminder of the engineering achievements and the quality of craftsmanship during the time of railway expansion throughout Ireland. The elevations are much enlivened by the textural variation of the skilfully executed limestone detailing. The bridge is still in use and forms an integral part of the ongoing history of railway transport in the area.
