Covered Bridges
Covered bridges are a quintessential symbol of New England. The spans
were covered over to afford the structure protection from wind and rain,
and to keep the decking free of snow and ice. There were hundreds of cov-
ered bridges throughout the region, but most succumbed to old age, fire,
or flood.
Robyville Bridge,
1876, Kenduskeag Stream. The only completely
shingled covered bridge in the state of Maine. Located off Route 15 in
Robyville Village in the town of Corinth, about three miles northwest of
Kenduskeag Village.
