What is recorded here
Peafield Bridge in Ballysimon sticks a stone V into the River Groody and sends it through two separate arches. The river joins up again beyond it, like brothers separated at Mass who resume fighting outside.
Double-arch road bridge over the River Groody, built c. 1800. Rubble limestone walls with cut limestone round-headed arches and V-cutwater. Extended to west elevation with blockwork parapet.
Peafield Bridge is a good example of early nineteenth-century workmanship. Its robust limestone arches and V-cutwater create an attractive focal point in the surrounding landscape.
