Lowes Bridge, Covered bridge in Guilford, United States
Lowes Bridge stretches 120 feet across the Piscataquis River, featuring wooden construction and traditional architectural elements typical of 19th-century covered bridges.
Originally constructed in 1857, the bridge experienced multiple reconstructions due to floods, with the current structure dating from 1990 built upon original stone abutments.
The bridge represents Maine's engineering heritage, serving as one of only nine remaining historic covered bridges in the state.
Located just off Route 15 south of Guilford Village, the bridge maintains regular vehicle traffic while accommodating larger loads than its predecessor.
The reconstruction in 1990 involved elevating the abutments by three feet and assembling the entire structure offsite before rolling it into position.
