Charlemont Bridge


Charlemont Bridge is a stone bridge in Moy, County Tyrone, Northern Ireland
The bridge spans the River Blackwater connecting the villages of Moy and Charlemont on the old coaching route between Dungannon and Armagh. It is a triple-arched stone bridge constructed in 1855 by William Dargan, who was also responsible for the Portadown to Dungannon section of the Ulster Railway.
The centre arch of Charlemont Bridge is the navigation arch with 4m airdraft and 2.2m of water at normal levels.
The first fort and wooden bridge over the River Blackwater were built in June 1602. Charles, 8th Baron Mountjoy, named it Charlemont from his own Christian name.
