What is recorded here

Triple-arch rubble limestone bridge, built c. 1820, carrying road over Glashaboy River. Vertical coping stones to parapet walls. Segmental arches with roughly dressed voussoirs, triangular cutwater to north and south.
Long low appearance visible from winding approach roads both to south and east deceptive. Remarkably tall structure over deep valley, evidence of careful design construction and engineering. Carefully designed and executed arches are evidence of skill of stonemasons and stonecutters involved in construction. Roughly dressed vertical coping stones textural interest.

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