What is recorded here

Single-arch road bridge, over the Glasheenyreagha River, built c. 1840. Roughly-dressed snecked limestone walls with margined voussoirs to round arch and very roughly-dressed parapet. Recent polished granite date plaque to west parapet wall.
This road bridge though simple in design reflects the attributes of nineteenth-century engineering. The voussoirs contrast with the more roughly-dressed walls, enhancing the bridge's appearance. The importance of the bridge locally is reflected in the addition of a recently-added name plaque to its parapet wall.
