Covered Bridges

There are several covered bridges within a few miles of Saint-Gaudens, so while we were in the area, we hit them up. 

This bridge spans the Connecticut River, connecting the towns of Cornish, New Hampshire and Windsor, Vermont.

Love this sign!

The Cornish-Windsor Bridge is the longest wooden covered bridge in the United States and the longest two-span covered bridge in the world.

Blow-Me-Down Bridge

The Blow-Me-Down Bridge is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.  It spans a deep gorge on the Blow-Me-Down Brook.

Blacksmith Shop Bridge

The Blacksmith Shop Bridge is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.  The bridge was used by only one family and given its name because of its close proximity to a local blacksmith shop that once stood in an area know as Slab City.

Dingleton Hill Bridge

The Dingleton Hill Bridge is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. It was built by James Tasker who is known to have built at least eleven bridges in the area (including Blacksmith Shop Bridge and Blow-Me-Down Bridge).
