What is recorded here

Single-span rubble stone road bridge over Abhainn Leamhchoille [Laughil Stream], built c.1830, having single camber-headed arch. Tooled limestone voussoirs, stone block piers, roughly dressed rubble stone spandrels. Recent concrete repairs to soffit. Rubble-stone abutments and parapet walls with limestone block and recent rubble coping.
This stone-built road bridge is an important part of the road infrastructure of County Galway. Its tooled limestone creates a visual and textural contrast against the rubble stone spandrels and enhances the overall aesthetic character of the structure.
