Description
This semicircular bridge carries a one and half lane carriageway over the Clanrye River and its flood plain. It comprises four separate hump-backed single arches across the river's floodplain, these being connected by a long rubble stone walled causeway. Although all the arches are approximately identical in size, only the western-most arch now spans water, the others acting as flood arches. Whereas the latter are of random-rubble construction throughout, the former is of regularly-coursed squared granite. An element of adornment is also evident in its finely dressed granite voussoirs with raised keystones. Its upstream abutment on the left bank is slightly splayed and its parapets are coped with rock-faced granite blocks. All parapets are coped with squared granite blocks.
