Grist Mill Covered Bridge

The wooden structure spans 84.5 feet across the Brewster River with a single traffic lane and features rectangular window cutouts on its long side walls.

Built in 1872, this Burr arch truss bridge served local farmers transporting goods and remains one of three covered bridges still standing in Cambridge.

The bridge received recognition on the National Register of Historic Places in 1974, representing Vermont's traditional transportation infrastructure and rural engineering methods.

Visitors can find parking at Brewster River Park and access the bridge by foot to examine its wooden trusses and red exterior construction.

The structure carries four different names: Grist Mill, Bryant, Canyon, and Scott Bridge, each reflecting different aspects of its location and history.
