The National Monuments Service's description
A road bridge (Wth 5.2m; long axis N-S) spanning a tributary of the Glanooragh River. It is built of random rubble sandstone with ashlar used for the sides of the abutments. There is a single segmental arch (span 3.25m) with roughly shaped voussoirs. The parapets have concrete coping and the N end of the E parapet has collapsed.
