About Coolagh Bridge
The National Inventory rates Coolagh Bridge Regional, one of 21 in Ballydehob. Its record dates Coolagh Bridge to 1800–1840. 3 other places on the record stand within 400 m.
The simple form of this road bridge is enhanced by the textural variation of the roughly coursed walls and cut voussoirs. Sited to the north of Ballydehob, its survival and ongoing usage is testament to the masonry and engineering skills of the early nineteenth century.

Questions about Coolagh Bridge
Is Coolagh Bridge on the National Inventory?
Yes: rated Regional (record 20832001).
Can you visit Coolagh Bridge?
It can be seen from the street; whether you can go inside depends on its owner.
When was Coolagh Bridge built?
Its National Inventory record dates it to 1800–1840.
Is Coolagh Bridge protected?
Being on the National Inventory or the Sites and Monuments Record is a record, not protection by itself: buildings are protected by their council’s Record of Protected Structures, which each council keeps and no national open list gathers, so this page can’t say which are on it.
