Seven Arches Bridge (Newport)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Seven Arches Bridge is a historic bridge in Newport, County Mayo, Ireland.
Built around 1892, the bridge is a seven span squared red sandstone structure with limestone detailing over the Black Oak River/Newport River. It carried the Achill branch of the Midland Great Western Railway line,[1] with the last train running on this line in the autumn of 1937.[2] It was recently restored as part of the Great Western Greenway, the longest off-road cycling & walking route in Ireland.[3]
The bridge is listed as number 112 on the Record of Protected Structures for County Mayo.[1]
