The National Monuments Service's description
A road bridge (Wth 5.7m; long axis NW-SE) spanning the Dorannagh stream. It is built of random rubble with the pier and the sides of the abutments of ashlar. The two segmental arches (span c. 4m) have rusticated cut-stone voussoirs. There is a low rounded cutwater of punch-dressed ashlar on the upstream side of the pier (Wth 1.1m). Concrete plinths have been added to the pier and sides of abutments. There is vertical stone coping on the parapets.
