Bull's Bridge, Covered bridge in Kent, US.
Bull's Bridge spans 109 feet across the Housatonic River with a wooden structure featuring a Town lattice design and reinforced trusswork visible inside.
Built in 1842 to replace earlier versions dating from 1760, the bridge served as a vital link for transporting iron from local foundries to Poughkeepsie.
The bridge represents one of three remaining covered bridges in Connecticut and maintains its role in connecting communities across the Housatonic River.
Vehicles must yield to oncoming traffic on this single-lane bridge, with parking areas available near both entrances for visitors exploring the area.
The bridge intersects with the Appalachian Trail system and provides access to hiking paths that lead to waterfalls and rapids along the Housatonic River.
