Description

Single-arch bridge, built c.1860, crossing Abhainn Bheara [River Barra] comprising squared and snecked walls, segmental arch with rock-faced voussoirs and having string course at springing level, and slightly projecting rebuilt random rubble parapet walls with concrete copings.

Appraisal

This small, but elegant bridge crossing Abhainn Bheara [River Barra], is a visually interesting man-made feature in the shadow of An Cnoc Breac [Crockbrack] and Maol an nDamh [Moylenanav]. The wide segmental arch and walls are well built of rusticated granite.
