What is recorded here

Double-arch limestone road bridge, built c.1840, with segmental arches having rusticated voussoirs, gunnelled soffits, snecked stone walling and piers having tooled imposts and flanked to landward ends by rusticated dressed buttresses. Dressed stone central pier has V-cutwaters. Rubble parapets with mortared on-end slate coping stones.
Spanning the Traheen River, this is an imposing and well executed road bridge and a vital component of the area's road infrastructure. The fine limestone stonework displayed in features such as the voussoirs and cutwaters enlivens this engineering structure.
