What is recorded here

Four-arch humpback road bridge, built c. 1760, carrying road over Glashaboy River. Rubble sandstone walls with rubble sandstone copings to parapets. Round arches with rubble sandstone voussoirs. V-cutwaters to south elevation. Extended with cast concrete span to north.
The wide span and multiple arches are unusual. Well designed and carefully executed, the symmetry and form make it a notable feature within the landscape.

This does not grant access. Most recorded buildings are privately owned; view them only from public ground unless the owner allows entry.
