What is recorded here

Freestanding single-arch limestone road bridge over River Finnow, built c. 1810. Rubble stone walls with dressed limestone string course above arch. Segmental arch with dressed limestone voussoirs. Snecked rubble limestone walls to carriageway elevation of parapet walls with dressed and tooled limestone copings.
This bridge forms part of an important road linking Millstreet to Mallow and Killarney. It is in very good repair and this is a testament to the skill involved in its construction and design. The string course to the parapet wall and the dressed voussoirs are well executed features and add decorative interest to the form of the bridge.
