The National Monuments Service's description

Mid/late 19th-century hump-backed road bridge(Wth 3.7m; long axis NE-SW) spanning the Glashagarriv stream. Single segmental arch (span 3.65m) with dressed voussoirs some of which project beyond the faces of the bridge. Body of random rubble with sides of abuttments (H c. 1.3m) under arch of rusticated ashlar. A strip of concrete has been inserted across the S face of the bridge and a recent overhanging parapet has been built on it thus widening the road surface on the bridge by c. 0.23m. The surviving original parapet on the N side has had concrete coping added. River bed paved from c. mid-way under the arch to c. 2m beyond the SE face of the bridge.
