The National Monuments Service's description
A bridge is marked on the Petty map of Roscommon barony dated 1683 between Clonycoylemore (Clooneen) and Ballytynne (Ballyfeeny) townlands. It is on the boundary of the parishes of Bumlin in Roscommon barony and Kilglass in Ballintober North. A three-arch bridge (L c. 15m) with dressed voussoirs is built as one unit (Wth c. 6m) across the S-N Scramoge River. The present bridge may be 18th century in date.
