What is recorded here
Tuogh Bridge in Clonshire Beg has a U-shaped cutwater on one side and a V-shaped one on the other. Even the pointy bits that divide the river couldn’t agree on a shape. The Greanagh has spent two centuries going between them.
Double-arch humpback road bridge over the River Greanagh, built c. 1800. Rubble limestone walls with tooled limestone voussoirs to round-headed arches. Concrete U-cutwater to east and V-cutwater to west elevation.
This fine stone humpback bridge is an important component of the surrounding landscape. It is well detailed and clearly constructed with engineered precision.
