What is recorded here
Triple-arch hump-back road bridge, built c.1800, spanning River Stick. Camber-headed arches having dressed stone voussoirs springing from stone block piers with V-cutwaters flanking central arch. Rubble stone spandrels, soffits and abutments with later rubble stone parapet walls with rendered coping.
An eye-catching road bridge set in the centre of Riverstick, which makes a handsome historic addition to the streetscape. It is a reminder of the skill and craftsmanship of stone masons in the past. The bridge was an important communication link between the main ports of Cork and Kinsale in the past. A new bridge named 'Droigid Donngha de Barra' was built in 1966 to relieve this bridge.
