Newfield Covered Bridge
Open
20 Bridge St
Newfield, NY 14867
The Newfield Covered Bridge, constructed between 1851 and 1853, spans 115 feet in length and 16 feet in width over the West Branch of the Cayuga Inlet. Dedicated to early settler Elijah Moore, the bridge was built to withstand natural elements, featuring a covered design to reduce maintenance costs.
Over the years, the bridge has undergone several reconstructions, with significant efforts led by Grant and Marie Musser in 1969 to preserve it from demolition. The bridge showcases a Town Lattice Truss style and has become a historical landmark, reflecting the rich heritage of Newfield and its community.
