Description
Single-arch hump back road bridge over river, extant 1840. Part creeper- or ivy-covered coursed rubble stone walls with concreted (west) or rubble stone soldier course (east) coping to parapets. Single round or segmental arch with lichen-spotted voussoirs. Sited spanning Ballyedmond River with unkempt banks to river.
Appraisal
A bridge representing an integral component of the civil engineering heritage of County Wexford: meanwhile, a much weathered benchmark remains of additional interest for the connections with cartography and the preparation of maps by the Orndnace Survey (established 1824).
