This bridge is part of the nearby Big House known as Belview House and mill complex located to the south of the bridge and probably dates to the late 18th century. The present stone bridge which traverses the River Brosna where it connects county Offaly to Westmeath may have replaced an earlier bridge as in the 17th century Lismoyny was described as the 'chief entrance into Fercall' by the Lord Deputy Mountjoy in 1601 (Cal. S.P. Ire. 1600-1601, 203-264).
The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Offaly' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1997). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
