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.
