What is recorded here

Spanning the Inny River. In 1682 ‘Sir Connell Ferral Knight' erected 'a wooden bridge over the River Einey [Inny] at a place called Srooher [Shrule] from the Rapidness of the River in that place' (Gillespie and Moran 1991, 211). No visible remains survive but the present bridge was probably built on its site. The latter bridge, of concrete construction, dates to the 20th century.

From the National Monuments Service (Archaeological Survey of Ireland) record LF026-030001
