Jaynes Covered Bridge

Jaynes Covered Bridge in Waterville, Vermont, carries Codding Hollow Road over the North Branch Lamoille River and dates to about 1877. It is one of three surviving 19th-century covered bridges in the town and part of an unusually dense cluster of five spanning the same river within five miles. The single-span queen-post truss bridge retains a typical Vermont profile with a gabled metal roof and vertical board siding. Although altered for continued use with steel I-beams and reinforced joints, it still preserves the character of a late 19th-century rural crossing and was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1974.
