Clapper bridges are composed of a series of stone piers or blocks, which support slabs, so as to form bridges.[1] The word 'clapper' is derived from the Latin claperium, a 'pile of stones'.[2]This bridge is depicted on both the 1841 and 1901 surveyed OS maps, and appears to have been in use for many years, as a crossing point over the River Glashagarriff (Glaise Gharbh in the Irish language meaning 'rough rivulet').[3] It collapsed in recent times due to flood damage.[4] See also
