One of only three remaining covered bridges in the state, Bull's Bridge is a historic wooden bridge that runs for 109 feet across the Housatonic River. The current bridge was originally constructed in 1842, with several additions being made in the 19th and 20th centuries, and it has been on the National Register of Historic Places since 1972. The bridge only permits one lane of traffic at a time, but it has been kept in operation because of its remarkably sound construction and its capability to withstand heavy loads. Nevertheless, pedestrians are advised to use caution when crossing because of the limited space.
