What is recorded here

Single-arch road bridge over railway tracks on Cork/Youghal line, built 1859, having coursed rock-faced rusticated limestone walls and copings to parapets. Segmental arch with rock-faced rusticated limestone voussoirs. Red brick construction visible to soffit. Flanking quadrant walls of rock-faced limestone construction to east and west elevations.
Robust road bridge built in conjunction with the opening of the railway line through Carrigtohill in 1859. It is a fine example of the quality of craftsmanship employed by the railway authority in the construction of their utilitarian structures throughout the latter half of the nineteenth century.
