What is recorded here

Seven-arch road bridge spanning River Inny, built c.1650. Originally the bridge had nine arches but the central three arches were replaced by a single-arched central section in rusticated limestone, with rusticated limestone coping and dressed limestone voussoirs, c.1877. A limestone plaque on the bridge marks these 1877 works. The central arch is flanked by early-seventeenth century sections with three smaller arches to the north and the south, constructed with random limestone with cut limestone voussoirs. These smaller arches are separated by triangular-shaped breakwaters on the upstream side of the bridge. An early-seventeenth century sandstone armorial plaque is found on the east side of the bridge. This plaque was moved to its present location during the 1877 works. Located to the west end of the village of Finnea.
