Description

Kilmichael Bridge, dated 1737, is a long and narrow structure featuring four segmental spans, with the central pair being higher than the others. The bridge is constructed from rubble and has a rough-hewn coping on the parapet wall. There are two buttresses on each side of the bridge. A plaque on the west side is inscribed with "Built by the Shire 1737."

It experiences an average of 11 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 89% of listed buildings. Of these, 6 follow at least 1 mm of rain in the preceding 48 hours. Average temperatures at this location have risen by 0.2°C per decade since 1991.
