What is recorded here

Battered limestone pier, built c. 1850. Coursed rusticated walling, with tooled limestone parapet walls to west. Limestone cobblestones and concrete surface to pier. Carved limestone mooring posts to east. Cast-iron framework jetty to north having cast-iron braces.
This pier survives with its original form intact and serves to highlight the technical proficiency of marine architects in the nineteenth century. The pier forms an integral part of Glin's rich architectural heritage and forms an interesting silhouette in the landscape.
