What is recorded here
Single-arch limestone road bridge over tributary of Duniry River, built c.1760. Elliptical arch having cut-stone voussoirs. Snecked cut-stone walls and parapets with tooled copings. Tooled string course. Walls terminating in square-profile pier abutments. Recent render repairs to east approach wall. Rubble revetment wall to river bank, to either side of bridge.
This modest road bridge is a testament to the quality and endurance of local craftsmanship. The irregularity of the snecked blockwork forms a pleasing visual and textural contrast to the austere lines of the abutments and string course.
This does not grant access. Most recorded buildings are privately owned; view them only from public ground unless the owner allows entry.
