Find this little gem just outside of town. It is a beautiful setting and a fairly unrestored bridge. It could use some repairs but it is interesting to see one of these old gems in its "as-is" condition after a hundred years of use.
There is better parking on the north end of the bridge but I did manage to pull off the road on the south end too (in a small car). Neither place is "official" but they will do so you can get out and check it out by foot.
Best guess on age of the bridge is late 1800's by the structure and assembly methods used.
