Waterfall Bridge Details

Another 1925 bridge, this bridge spans Hadlock Brook. It is 125 feet in length and flares gently at the ends. The 20-foot span of its rounded arch is outlined by a firm row of radiating voussoirs. Random laid ashlar cover the substructure and bold blocks of the same material form the railing copings. A pair of semi-circular viewing platforms jut out on either side to take advantage of the view.
