Three-arch bridge, built c.1860, over River Camcor, and set within Birr Castle demesne. Yellow brick soffits and arches to segmental arches, brick parapets, snecked rock-faced limestone to spandrels and roughly dressed limestone to piers and to upstream cut-waters. Plaque to parapet depicting earlier bridge of 1640 most likely from another structure elsewhere in Birr area. Earlier three-arch bridge had castellated parapets over river bank.
