Description

This bridge carries the main Newry - Rathfriland road over the Clanrye River. It comprises three semicircular spans in quarried rubble granite, with dressed-granite triangular cutwaters on both up- and down- sides (terminating at arch spring level). The voussoirs are of finely dressed granite, with raised keystones. The parapet is topped with squared granite blocks. The road makes a dogleg approach to the bridge, and is slightly humped as it passes over. In plan, it has a curvature at its east end, necessitating the corbelling out of the end of the eastern arch on the downstream side.
