This unique bridge crosses the Wolf River on the south side of New London.
Built in 1893, the bridge consists of a trio of through girder spans, two of which used to be a swing span.
While the main span was originally built as a swing span, it has since been rendered to a fixed position. Timber cribbing has replaced the original swing mechanism, and the span was likely turned by a key of sorts. The substructures of this bridge are built with stone.
Research has found that the bridge was constructed in 1893, although a builder is unknown. Lassig Bridge & Iron Works could possibly have been the builder.
Overall, the bridge appears to be in fair to good condition.
The author has ranked this bridge as being moderately significant, due to the swing design.
