Stony Brook Covered Bridge

Stony Brook Covered Bridge, also called the Moseley Covered Bridge, stands in rural southern Northfield, Vermont, carrying Stony Brook Road over Stony Brook. Built in 1899, it is a single-span King post truss, a notably rare covered-bridge form in Vermont. It is considered one of only two surviving nineteenth-century covered bridges of this design in the state and is believed to be the last King post truss bridge built during Vermont’s historic covered-bridge era. Though later strengthened with steel I-beams and concrete-faced abutments, it has retained its basic character. Its significance was recognized by listing on the National Register of Historic Places in 1974.
