The Northfield Falls Covered Bridge, also called the Station Covered Bridge,[2] is a wooden covered bridge that crosses the Dog River in Northfield, Vermont on Cox Brook Road. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1974.[1]
The bridge is of Town lattice truss design.
In 1963 the bridge deck was strengthened by the addition of 4 steel I beams underneath and the unmortared stone abutments were faced with concrete.[3]
