Description
Two-arch limestone bridge, constructed c.1800, spanning narrower channel of River Suir. Rubble stone walls with V-cutwater to north elevation, and dressed voussoirs to arch rings.
Appraisal
This small bridge forms part of the route of the former Dublin-Cork road through Cahir. Spanning a branch of the River Suir, it is part of an interesting group of bridges in the town and this, and its position next to the gates and lodge for Cahir Park, adds further importance to what is a modest structure.
