The National Monuments Service's description
An E-W road bridge spanning the Deenagh River. Built of random rubble. Five segmental arches with roughly shaped voussoirs and cut-stone keystones. Three low pointed cutwaters built of ashlar appear to be additions to upstream side of piers. This bridge is named 'Mill Br.' on the 1846 OS 6-inch map.
