COVERED BRIDGES

Cilleyville / Bog Bridge, Andover, NH
Location: At the junction of N.H. Route 11 and N.H. Route 4A
Built in 1887, this bridge spans Pleasant Brook. It was bypassed in 1959 and restricted to foot traffic. The bridge was the model for murals of typical New Hampshire scenes which were once located in the State House in Concord. Town lattice truss; 53 feet long.

Bement Bridge, Bradford Center Road, Bradford, NH
Location: One quarter mile north of the intersection of N.H. Routes 103 and 114
Built in 1854, this bridge carries Bradford Center Road across the west branch of the Warner River. Tradition has it that Colonel Stephen H. Long, a Hopkinton native and a member of the U.S. Army Topographical Engineers, built the bridge. While working for the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad, Long developed a plan for a new covered bridge truss that became nationally known as the Long truss. Long patented his design in 1830. Long truss; 60 feet long.

Dalton / Joppa Road Bridge, Joppa Rd.,Warner, NH
Location: South of N.H. Route 103 on Joppa Road
Built in 1853, this bridge carries Joppa Road across the Warner River. This is one of the oldest standing covered bridges in use today. It is also known as the Joppa Road Bridge. The bridge was rebuilt in 1963-1964. Long truss with an auxiliary Queenpost system; 76 feet long
.
Keniston Bridge, Lorden Road, Andover, NH
Location: South of U.S. Route 4, one mile west of Andover Village
Built in 1882, this bridge carries Lorden Road over the Blackwater River. The bridge's name came from a prominent family that lived for many years in one of the old homesteads in town. The bridge has been damaged only once, in 1972, when ice tore off several planks. The bridge was rehabilitated by the town in 1981. Town lattice truss; 64 feet long.

Pier Bridge, Newport, NH  03773
Location: East of Chandler Station and west of N.H. Route 103 on the Concord and Claremont Railroad line spanning the Sugar River.
The current bridge was built in 1907 by the Boston and Maine Railroad to replace a wood lattice bridge constructed in 1871-1872 by the Sugar River Railroad. The double Town/Pratt lattice trusses with laminated arches were long favored on the branch lines of the Boston & Maine Railroad. In 1900 at least 100 of this type of truss were in use on the Boston & Maine system. Double Town-Pratt lattice truss; 216 feet long.

Waterloo Bridge, New Market Rd., Warner, NH
Location: South of N.H. Route 103, two miles west of Warner Village
Built in 1840, this bridge carries New Market Road across the Warner River. The structure was completely rebuilt in 1857 and a second time in 1970, and it was rehabilitated in 1987 at a cost of $3,000. Town lattice truss; 76 feet long.

Wright's Bridge, Newport, NH
Location: Two miles south of N.H. Route 103 and one-half mile west of Chandler Station in Newport
This bridge, on the Concord and Claremont Railroad line spanning the Sugar River, was built in 1906 by the Boston and Maine Railroad. It replaced a wooden bridge built by the Sugar River Railroad in 1871 and 1872. The Concord and Claremont Railroad was well known for its use of the double Town/Pratt lattice truss. In 1915, there were 15 such bridges on the rail line.

HIKING/GUIDE SERVICE

Bogs

Bradford Bog - Located in a secluded area of central NH, Bradford Bog affords the rewards of silence and solitude in addition to an up-close view of one of the state’s northernmost Atlantic white cedar swamps. A variety of natural community types occur at Bradford Bog, and some of them, like the inland Atlantic white cedar swamp itself, are considered exemplary.
(from the NH Division of Forests and Lands, Natural Heritage Bureau)

Danbury Bog - The wetlands at Danbury bog support a variety of native and migrating waterfowl, including mallards, black ducks, wood ducks and ring-necked ducks. Other common wildlife includes great blue heron, beaver, muskrat, otter, white-tailed deer, moose, coyotes, woodcock and ruffed grouse. The bog has a limited warmwater fishery, which includes pickerel and bullheads.

 

From the center of Danbury, take Route 104 south and take the first right. Travel .3 miles and the dam site will be on the left. A small parking area for 2 to 3 cars and a wildlife management area sign are adjacent to the dam. Canoes and small boats can easily be launched from the damsite.

Philbrick-Cricenti Bog - If you'd like to walk on water, you'll find your perfect chance at Philbrick-Cricenti Bog. Formed by arctic plant species that grew across the top of a glacial pond, a living mat of moss and sedge.
