What is recorded here

Abandoned road bridge (Wth 5.4m; long axis E-W) on the line of the old KenmareCastletownbere road. Built of random rubble. Single semicircular arch (span 3.4m) with narrow roughly shaped voussoirs. Parapets partially collapsed but some vertical stone coping survives in places. On the 1895-7 OS 6-inch map the name Feorus Br. is applied to a newer bridge (KE101-123---) built c. 100m downstream to the N on the new line of the KenmareCastletownbere road.
