Description
This is a single-arch railway bridge over Goragh Road, carrying the Belfast to Dublin line. The bridge was surveyed during the First and Second Surveys but was not considered worthy of full listing. It features a segmental headed arch constructed with squared, rock-faced stone walling, used for both the bridge itself and the retaining walls. The parapet has random stone coping and is topped with plain tubular metal railings.
