What is recorded here
Rubble stone clapper bridge, built c.1800, crossing tributary of Abhainn Mhín Ghiolla Charraigh [Meengilcarry River] and having three low, narrow square-headed spans, triangular cut-waters to northeast elevation, and rubble stone parapets with copings of large stones.
This bridge is a rare surviving example of a clapper bridge, wherein the arching is achieved by simple stone slabs, and it forms an attractive feature in the landscape.
This does not grant access. Most recorded buildings are privately owned; view them only from public ground unless the owner allows entry.
