Porter-Parsonfield Bridge
Porter-Parsonfield Bridge, Covered bridge over Ossipee River between Porter and Parsonsfield, United States.
The Porter-Parsonfield Bridge extends 152 feet across the Ossipee River, featuring wooden trusses and laminated arches within its cedar-shingled structure.
Built in 1876 through collaboration between Porter and Parsonsfield towns, this bridge replaced three previous structures dating back to 1800.
The bridge represents the engineering methods of rural Maine communities, illustrating local construction techniques through its Paddleford truss design.
Located half a mile south of Porter, the structure measures 22 feet wide with an interior clearance of 15 feet 6 inches.
Different roofing materials on each half of the bridge reflect the historical division of maintenance responsibilities between Porter and Parsonsfield towns.
