Description
Single-arched road bridge over tributary of the Camlin River/former millrace, built c. 1800. Round-headed arch with dressed limestone voussoirs. Squared rubble stone construction to spandrel walls, abutments and barrel. Located to the west of Ballinalee.
Appraisal
This simple but well-executed limestone bridge spans a mill stream, fed from the Camlin River and associated with a bleach and tuck mill in the early-nineteenth century, later in use as a saw mill (c. 1913), now demolished. It is a modest example of late eighteenth/early nineteenth-century craftsmanship, and is an integral element of the built heritage of the Kilshruley area. To the northeast of a larger bridge over the Camlin River (13401030).
