New Hampshire Notable Bridge

New Henniker Bridge

A truss bridge built in 1863 was the second structure on its site, replacing an original stone arch bridge from 1845 that was destroyed by flooding in 1852. The bridge measured just over 20 feet wide and 180 feet long, featuring a single span supported by two triple lattice trusses on granite abutments. Its timber truss design included fixed intersection angles at the center, with diagonal angles that varied toward the ends of the span. It is sometimes called the “New Bridge”. You can learn more about its history at Jeff Foliage website here.
