Salmond Bridge was built by James F. Tasker around 1880. This 54-foot multiple king post structure spanned the Black River near Stoughton Pond and was named after the Salmond family living near the bridge. It remained in this area until 1959, when it was relocated beside Route 131 in Amsden to remove it from the flood control area. There it was used as a town storage shed. Through the efforts of the townspeople of Weathersfield, it was restored and moved to this site over Sherman Brook in 1986.
