Description

Triple-arch humpbacked road bridge over the Multeen River, erected c. 1840. Dressed limestone walls and piers with dressed limestone voussoirs to segmental arches and dressed limestone capping stones to parapet walls.

Appraisal

This bridge, although simple in design, exhibits the work of skilled craftsmanship. The use of dressed limestone is somewhat unusual in rural bridges. The bridge provides an important link between the villages of Dundrum and Drumbane.
