Two limestone road bridges, built c.1800, to provide single crossing of Owenbeg and Clodiagh Rivers. Eastern bridge has five round arches, one span replaced in concrete, rubble walls with dressed voussoirs, and rubble copings. Western bridge has two round arches and similar detailing to eastern bridge, with V-cut-water to north elevation.
These two stone bridges at a major crossing point at the junction of two rivers, add visual interest to the landscape. The stonework to the bridges displays skilled craftsmanship.
