What is recorded here
Single-arch limestone railway bridge, built c. 1860, carrying road traffic over disused railway line. Rusticated walls with rounded copings to parapets, rock-faced voussoirs to segmental arch, and dressed stone string courses above arches and to imposts. Ashlar masonry to soffit and to road side of parapets.
This bridge formed part of the Mallow to Fermoy line which closed in 1967. The textural interest of this bridge is provided by several different treatments of limestone - snecked ashlar, rock-faced voussoirs, and alternating coping stones. This apparently simple single-arched bridge has sophisticated ashlar masonry to its soffit.
