What is recorded here
Two-arch road bridge over river, extant 1839. Coursed rubble limestone walls centred on triangular cutwater to pier to upriver (east) elevation having pyramidal capping with concrete (south) or rubble stone (north) coping to parapets. Pair of segmental arches with lichen-spotted cut-limestone voussoirs. Sited spanning river.
A bridge representing an integral component of the civil engineering heritage of Mullinavat with the architectural value of the composition suggested not only by the rough cut limestone dressings demonstrating good quality workmanship, but also by the elegant "sweep" of the arches making a pleasing visual statement at a crossing over a tributary of the Black River.
