What is recorded here
Three-arch slightly-humpbacked limestone road bridge over River Suir, built c.1550 and rebuilt c.1750. Rubble walls, with cut-stone copings to parapet walls, and elliptical arches with cut-stone voussoirs. Cut-stone trapezoidal-plan cut-waters to upstream and downstream elevations.
The design of this bridge shows evidence of skilled engineering and well-crafted stonework, as seen in the cut-stone voussoirs and cutwaters. The site was bridged in the medieval period and the present structure, connecting the walled town to the north and Suir Island to the south, contains early fabric.
