Newfield Bridge, Covered bridge in Newfield, Tompkins County, US
The Newfield Bridge extends 115 feet over the Cayuga Inlet west branch, featuring a Town lattice design with a width of 16 feet.
Built between 1851 and 1853 for 800 dollars, this wooden covered bridge represents a significant example of nineteenth-century transportation infrastructure in New York State.
