The National Monuments Service's description
An E-W road bridge (Wth 6.9m) spanning the Deenagh River. Built of random rubble. Two eliptical arches with cut-stone voussoirs; the E arch is dry. A low pointed cutwater occurs on the upstream side of the pier. There is a projecting string course at the base of the parapet walls. Access to the bridge is now restricted to pedestrians.
