Description

Triple-arch road bridge over the River Mahore, built c. 1810. Rubble limestone walls with limestone cappings to north. Extended to south with concrete walls and V-cutwaters. Dressed limestone voussoirs to the round-headed arches.

Appraisal

Ahnagcragh Bridge is a well designed and solidly built structure, clearly constructed by skilled craftsmen and engineers. The arches to the north form an attractive, rhythmical silhouette in the landscape.
