Road over rail bridge, Trummery Lane, Moira, Craigavon, Co Armagh, BT67

This skew single-arch brick and stone bridge carries a one-and-a-half lane minor road over the double-track Lisburn-Lurgan section of the Belfast-Dublin railway, just north of the Lisburn – Moira road. The line runs along a cutting at this point. The abutments are of ashlar sandstone, with minor repairs in red brick where weathered. A chamfered ashlar sandstone string course also runs around the quoins and through the arch at spring level. The arch is of segmental profile, with vee-jointed ashlar sandstone voussoirs which splay out to form spandrels. The soffit is of skew set brickwork. There is a tapered projecting buttress to each side, of rusticated and margined sandstone blocks set in regular courses. The buttresses extend up to the tops of the parapets and have shallow pyramidal sandstone caps. The wing walls are set out from the face of the bridge and commence just beyond the buttresses. They are of random rubble blackstone construction. The parapets are of dressed sandstone blocks with replacement brickwork along the top where weathered. They are topped with finely dressed sandstone copings. The copings over the bridge and wing walls step up in two places, in line with the rising gradient of the road (from south to north). There are out-projecting terminal piers at each end. A brick string course runs along the base of each parapet and around the buttress extensions. The curved approach wall at the NE end is of more modern brickwork with a concrete coping. It is probably a relatively modern replacement of the original sandstone wall rather than a new extension. A high random rubble blackstone wall retains the bank at the SE end of the bridge. A modern galvanised metal staircase runs down the bank to track at SW.
