Description

Freestanding single-span road bridge, built c.1840. Segmental arch with roughly dressed limestone rubble walling, voussoirs, string course and parapets with rustic rubble copings. Dressed limestone imposts and gunnelled soffit. Narrow tarmacadam road over bridge.

Appraisal

This well executed bridge, although of a simple design, is an important feature of the demesne attached to Kylemore Abbey. Its single arch is enhanced by the string course and well-crafted imposts.
