Orr’s Bridge, Saintfield Road, Ballygowan, Co. Down, BT23 6HB

Slightly skewed road bridge sited on the Saintfield Road, just to the W of the village of Ballygowan. The SE face of the bridge appears largely original, being of flat basalt rubble with a single semicircular arch with sandstone voussoirs. Either side of the arch are large triangular buttresses now faced in concrete. Above the arch is a small hole (probably for drainage) with a ‘shelf’-like protruding stone beneath it. The NW face of the bridge has been rebuilt in recent times (probably due to the widening of the road) and consists of a square arch in concrete. The road is covered in tarmac.
