The Newfield Covered Bridge, located in Newfield, NY, is a historic landmark that was built in 1851-1853. Spanning 115 feet in length and 16 feet in width, the bridge was dedicated to Elijah Moore and has been preserved over the years through two reconstructions.
Originally covered to protect it from natural elements, the bridge features diamond-shaped windows that were added later. Saved from demolition in 1969, the bridge underwent reconstructions in 1972 and 1998, with the latter including beautification of the surroundings and landscaping of the banks. Today, the Newfield Covered Bridge stands as a testament to the town's history and the craftsmanship of its early settlers.
